I believe the bicycle comment was the same judge, but a completely different case.

This 10 year old was apparently sexually active and was made-up to look at least 16. She approached the 24 year old man and initiated consensual sex, whilst telling him she was 16.

The key to the sentencing was the statement, "She looked 16, that was a matter that was accepted."

The prosecution has stipulated that the girl appeared to look 16, adding that to her provocative dress and behaviour, it's going to be hard for the judge to jail for an extended period.
The perpetrator had already served eight months in prison, so it's actually a one year sentence, possibly two.
