First of all, Turing was not prosecuted for homosexuality, but for ‘gross indecency’ – against a teenage boy. The 19 year old labourer that Alan Turing was found guilty of buggering, was not convicted of any crime, and was below the age of majority in the UK at the time (21). He was seen as the child victim of Alan Turing, and the law against homosexuality, or rather ‘gross indecency’, was seen as protecting children and young people against sexual abuse.

You can bet your bottom dollar Aaron that for every 19 year old boy Alan Turing buggerized, there were a dozen 12-14 year olds hidden away somewhere.
