Adam Johnson Takes And Shared Picture Of Himself With His Daughter As He Awaits Prison Sentence

Adam Johnson yesterday shared a photo of himself cuddling his one-year-old daughter as he awaits a prison sentence for grooming a 15-year-old fan, uk.sports.yahoo.com reports.

The former Man U and Sunderland star put the black-and-white photo of himself hugging Ayla on WhatsApp as he prepares for life behind bars.

Here are the barrage of mixed comments that followed the uk.sports.yahoo.com report;

    He should have known better, perhaps he did and thought it worth the risk.
    Bad error of judgement & certainly not worth it in my opinion.

    Well, it will all change soon when sharia law takes over and getting married at 8 years of age will be quite acceptable... and #$%$ preferably with a goat the norm... with the amount of muslims and the power they demand, anything is possible... when we Anglo Saxons are in the minority!!

    I would have been horrified if it where my daughter. That said my 15.5 y old daughter is more like 19, I don't know the full story, but if it happened over a series of weeks he may well have taken advantage of her but I don't think she was fault free. A bit like the historic sex casses recently where the victim has an idea something is wrong but gets caught up in the moment. In Victorian times at 13 you could be married.

    the law should be changed so it is also illegal for anyone under the age of 16 to have sex, this way the younger ones may avoid such situations as there hasn't been anything to suggest the girl tried to avoid it. Also what about her being in a night club at 15 ?

    What he did was not acceptable but I am surprised at the amount of publicity this case has attracted when there seem to be rings operating which target seriously young girls and commit serious offences and the police seem to have been rather less than on the ball, maybe in their distorted view of maintaining race relations, or maybe they are just too stretched to deal with them- although it didn't stop them with Adam Johnson.

    You know what, looking back at me and my peers at age 15, we were old enough to know what we were doing, but most of us were still very very immature and naive and thus did a lot of stupid things. Therefore I agree that kids should be protected under law for their own good even raise the age of consent to 18.

    But the real victims in all this has to be his partner (now former partner) and his one year old daughter, who have to deal with the stigma of

    To post a hugging pic with his daughter must not interfere with the jail sentence.
    That same person denied his own daughter for flings with other women. This image was just produced in order to squeeze tear glands in the eyes of a judge.
    What angers here is that this useless garbage had a very good life style thanks to kicking the ball once in a while or so for luxury holidays in Dubai, adulteries in a row, expensive cruises and a house 90% could only dream of in Britain. Yet they run to the respective stadium with their last tenners cheering their "heroes".
    You wouldn't probably know that there are plans drawn up to provide the adulterer a career in the US as a manager after jail.
    After all he is a "world famous" star, right?

    Factor is here that he has pretty much ruined the daughters life. She's gonna be exposed later to comments that her "breeder" is in jail and henceforth be a previous convicted.

    You won't find the White Hall brigade of child molesters find in court. They enjoy immunity to "boy affairs".

    This man Adam Johnson got it all at once. This is what you get when you spoil someone with too much who renders rotten then.
    All the court affairs of course gonna be paid by the tax system.

    20 years ago i met a girl in a club thankfully we didn't do anything apart from have a drink and a dance,anyway weeks later while i was driving i saw her again and to my horror she was in her school uniform.

    Iam not comparing myself to this guy as he knew what he was doing from the first he met her but in certain circumstances it is easy to be fooled and its not always black and white.

    Don't get me wrong, what this guy has done is totally wrong, but I think that the girl involved should not be exempt from any blame. She knew what she was doing 100%, and saw it as a win-win, getting to both be intimate with a celebrity, and then being able to attention grab to her hearts content. I don't think this man is a paedophile, I think that this was a lapse n judgment. 15 year old girls often look and present themselves as much older than they are, and there is no doubt in my mind that she knew what she was doing. I do feel sorry for him that his life has been ruined due to one lapse in judgment. Don't get me wrong I think paedophiles are deplorable and have no place in society, but I don't believe that this guy is a paedophile, I think he was groomed by her as much as she was groomed by him. The most disgusting thing is that she has not only destroyed his life, but his daughter's too.

    He knew what he was doing was wrong. In the eyes of the law she is a child, he must have known that, irrespective of whether she encouraged him of not, that is no excuse for what he did. Typical footballer, brains in his trousers. As for the photo, trying to win the sympathy vote with the judge. I sincerely hope he receives a very long custodial sentence as a warning to other brains in their trousers jack the lad players. The next shirt he'll be pulling on will be a prison shirt, with the sponsors name on the front, HMP. LMFAO

    This is a strange law because there are many lads giving young girls babies but they are not even prosecuted - I don't understand it. Is is or isn't it against the law the have sex with someone under 16. If this is the case why aren't the fathers of ALL underage mothers prosecuted? There are thousands of them.

    He knowingly broke the law and the stupidity of men who risk so much just to get their end away with some girl is breathtaking. Theres plenty of legal age females out there and rich footballers get a huge range to choose from! so to pick a schoolgirl is inexcusable. You may think his punishment is harsh but its important that cases like this are used as DETERRENTS cause the next girl a guy chases after may be 12 or 13. Stay away from schoolgirls! That simple.

Why are Yahoo giving this guy even more coverage, so what he is saying "goodbye" to his daughter she will still be visiting him in prison one assumes? This is just another "celeb" sticking a middle finger up at decent people trying to show he is a family man and all that tosh! Such a family man he cheated on his then girlfriend, and not once or twice id media reports are to be believed.

    What has happened is wrong
    1. he should never of cheated on he's mrs
    2.he should never of gone through it in the first place with the 15 year old

    BUT

    When did she ever say stop or call out rape wasn't she in a nightclub? If so and i was in a nightclub i would assume everyone is at least over the age of 16

    If he knew how old she was she must of know what she wanted and that was ££££.

    This has now messed he's life up one silly mistake but yet there are plenty of men out there that are physically raping girls and get away with it. Did he pressurise her? No i don't think he did.

    He doesn't deserve to go to prison but he does need to come out and tell the public what actually happened not say what he's lawyer wants he to say but say what he was thinking.

    LOL, so now he's got a kid, that's not what he said to that model he tried fecking just before the trial...

    Here's my opinion:

    1) the judge told him to be careful what he said on social media
    2) that means that the judge will be looking at social media.
    3) Johnson thinks putting a nice cuddly picture of him and his kid will stop his upcoming prison sentence.

    Lock him away for 10 years, make an example of the pervert, under-age is under-age, no one should be screwing under-age people, if you don't know someone's age, you don't know their history or anything about them...so how the heck can you just go ahead and bone them?

    This 'girl' was supposedly tarted up when she met with Johnson but appeared on video link as a innocent school girl supposedly advised by her lawyers on how to dress!

    The guy is an idiot but this girl knew exactly what she was doing, wanted it and probably more if her phone contents had not been found! Some parents she has got!

    I find it totally unreal they judged this 15 year old girl to be a child. Her parents treated her as an adult, allowed her to wear mature clothes fitting for a 25 year old, they never bothered to escort her to the football ground, allowed her visits with the footballer, then cry wolf when she experiment with sexual advances like all 15 year old's (we all started even younger experimenting with sexual acts). Should the law want to prosecute then first do the parents for abandoning a "child". The man is being used as a scapegoat, there is not one man out there who wouldn't ignore this teenager when she was dressed up we all would take her for being 18 and sexually attractive.

    The sad truth is that most men seem to think that sexual activity with immature girls is okay as long as they look sexually mature.
    They don't see them when they're at home reading Barbie magazine with teddies on their beds.
    They don't care about the damage that occurs when they've had their fun and walked away, leaving the girl, who thought it was love, devastated.
    And they do walk away, because what does a grown man have in common with a child, however 'adult' they look on the outside? Nothing!

    A blatant sympathy PR attempt, whether the girl was, as someone already said "tarted up" and whether she knew what she was doing, is actually of little importance. HE KNEW she was underage, he actually googled the age where sex is permissible, HE KNEW what he was doing was wrong, so no sympathy whatsoever for this peadophile, no matter how many photos are shown of his tearful farewell to his daughter. A child that he was more than happy to push to one side and ignore when it came to his sexual wants!

From people thinking he is the worst thing ever, to some suggesting the girl is 15 and lots of girls look much older at this age and do know right from wrong. Whatever peoples perceptions this little girl will be without her dad and its her I feel sorry for. He was wrong for what he did there is no denying that, but I have seen people get off serving time behind bars for much worse!!

    Hormones and child neglect and a law that is used by some and ignored by others. How many of us know a young girl under age that's pregnant or had a baby, and the parents just accept it. He did wrong according to the law and by the sound of the judge he will be made an example of.

    What he did was wrong and he should be punished, but I think all the talk of 10 years in prison is WAY over the top. He's did a stupid and wrong thing, but at the end of the day he never actually hurt anyone. You could stab someone in the street and you'd get less, he's hardly a hardened dangerous criminal.

    I truly don't believe he deserves a jail sentence. He seems a nice family man. This law is wrong. He wasn't aware and he even did his research before approaching her. Nowadays, young girls are acting like older women. He has said sorry for his actions and he hasn't committed murder which is a far worse crime. I believe he deserves another chance and he should apologise to his girlfriend and the other girl. That's it, so simple. Everything has become too complicated. Wrong sentences given out for nothing. He is a wonderful dad as you can see in the picture and has a loving daughter. Just leave him alone and look at your own mistakes as well. May God Forgive him. Please comment ....

    He's hoping the judge will see the picture feel pity and give him a soft sentence for grooming the young school girl. At least Ched Evens had sex with a consenting adult and had two years stolen from his life as a result, that was a travesty of justice whereas Johnson is just a sneaky peodo!

    Have read some really stupid comments on here, like; "she was 15, she should have known" or "Muslims condone marriage much younger than 15" and a really nasty one "she probably wasn't a virgin anyway". Understand something you people. Would you condone your own daughter being taken to a side alley and being touched-up by a man in his mid to late twenty's? The law in this country, makes her underage, whether she instigates anything or not. Johnson new the law, as he knew the morality of his actions. I don't care if it was full sex, a sex act, a grope, a fiddle, or a kiss. The fact that he takes a 15 yr old girl to a side alley or quiet lane is wrong. Full Stop! If you don't want to put yourself in line for a conviction and possible custodian sentence, don't put yourself in a situation the first place. And finally, he has a toddler daughter himself. How will he feel if someone like him grooms her in ten years time?

    Here are some thoughts:

    1. I've heard it preached that Mary, Christ's mother, was around the age of 14 when she conceived Him by the enabling power of the Holy Spirit of God. Does that make God a paedophile and a pervert?

    2. I've read on the internet that once a young lady reaches 14 she is considered to be sexually mature.

    3. And if the young lady mentioned in the news report was one year older, she would be of the legal age for sexual consent, and yet still be classed as a minor. So why are 16 and 17 year old children (and younger) permitted by the State to have sex with other children? I thought sex was FOR ADULTS ONLY.
