Summary
One of them walked out of court with community service. The other is sitting in jail on $30,000 bond, facing five years to life.
What's the difference?
Jesse Mack Butler was convicted on ten rape-related charges in 2025. One of his victims nearly died—her doctor testified she was thirty seconds from death during a strangulation attack. Police found videos on his phone of the assaults. He faced 78 years in prison.
He got 150 hours of community service.
Butler's father is the former Director of Operations for Oklahoma State football. The judge who granted him youthful offender status holds two degrees from OSU. A state lawmaker has called for a grand jury investigation, saying the deal "smacks of political favor."
Now there's a second case. Canyn Rion Porter was charged in December 2025 with first-degree rape and strangulation. The allegations are strikingly similar. But Porter doesn't have family connections to OSU. He doesn't have a private attorney. He applied for a public defender.
So what happens now? Does Porter get the same deal Butler got? Or does he go to prison while Butler stays home under a curfew?
Either answer raises serious questions about how justice works in Payne County—and who it works for.
In this video, I break down both cases, the controversial youthful offender statute, the family connections that have people asking questions, and what these cases tell us about accountability in America.
The question isn't just what happens to Jesse Butler or Canyn Porter. It's what happens to the next girl.
