Are we so sure he's guilty???? She didnt say a word until she got knocked up and all of a sudden this bad man did this to her.....Or did he????? I know of 2 woman who intentionally lied because it financially benefited one and the other didnt want preacher daddy to think she was what she was.....

Truth, I guess I'll have to post the law verbatim. 16 is the age of consent, plain and simple.

§ 14‑27.7A. Statutory rape or sexual offense of person who is 13, 14, or 15 years old.

(a) A defendant is guilty of a Class B1 felony if the defendant engages in vaginal intercourse or a sexual act with another person who is 13, 14, or 15 years old and the defendant is at least six years older than the person, except when the defendant is lawfully married to the person.

(b) A defendant is guilty of a Class C felony if the defendant engages in vaginal intercourse or a sexual act with another person who is 13, 14, or 15 years old and the defendant is more than four but less than six years older than the person, except when the defendant is lawfully married to the person. (1995, c. 281, s. 1.)

In other words, it was dirty until she was 18, not just 16.

"Truth, the age of consent is 16, so it was only dirty when she was 15. --Derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"

Derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr,

The age of consent is 16, as long as the partner is no more than 4 years older than the 16 year old. A 20 year old can be with a 16 year old. The law is similar for 17 year olds -- a 21 year old can be with a 17 year old.

That's my understanding of the law. I used to know a guy that said if he ever doubted a girl's age, he would check out her license before dating her. He knew a cop that told him how that law works.

I don't believe she is so innocent. He was just plain stupid.
