If it is true that he may never play in MLB again (it is all over the news), then it is a shame for someone so young to have his career cut short for this reason/stupidity. There is always the Mexican League for him.

Wander Franco in Hot Water
It is a shame, but also hard to feel sorry for his stupidity. No sex is worth millions and a MLB career. I hope this makes others think twice.
Because she is likely the most hated person in the DR right now. If Franco loses his contract it won't get any better.
Update on Franco so far:
- All regional TV commercials with his face in Tampa area, edited/out of the air
- Franco hired Jay Reisinger, a famous lawyer that dealed with high profile cases among MLB playes.

Wander Franco’s U.S.-based attorney no stranger to high-profile cases
Jay Reisinger’s previous clients include Alex Rodriguez, Sammy Sosa and Aroldis Chapman.
If the charges are in the DR, he will need a Dominican lawyer. Interesting to see who that will be, or maybe there is already someone.
Just to give you an idea of who the "other" minor is, here's her tiktok page. (with her 650K followers)
Of course I followed your link. I'm without words.
What is with the upbringing of these kids. A fatherless nation. I'm having my challenges with my kids but this is out of control!
You would think that a young,very rich,good looking professional athlete would be able to find a MUCH better looking partner than that.....

The special prosecutors are actually investigating three complaints. Will it be 3 strikes and he is finally out?Sources: D.R. investigating 2nd Franco complaint

Typical young Dominican male. I'm guessing there are still more.

I suspect he’s finished in USA. He’ll probably end up in Japan.
Agreed
Why? Does Japan allow these sorts of crimes against minors, or do they conveniently turn a cheek?
No, but given his experience in the MLB, the Japan League would normally be a league where a player of his ability (on the field) would go. But the Japan League is rather conservative so I doubt he would land there. However, the Japan League has signed former MLB players in the past with dubious reputations, so who knows. But if he plays again, IMO it would be in the Mexican League. That league will take anyone.
Trevor Bauer is in the Japanese leagues now. He had got into hot water also.
