He does look older than 17. He prob has a fake ID that says he is 17 and I would have to wonder if the has given his correct name. At any rate 12yrs is too young. She may be filled out but emotionally the child is 12.

" know this man personally. He is no interest in a child. He has a little girl himself. The child's mother was jealous because he wouldn't sleep with her. The 12-year old is sexually active and denies anything happened. The mother is the one who pushed for charges because he wouldn't have anything to do with him. So please don't be judgemental before you know the whole story."

And we should believe you because why?

GulfWarVet- I AGREE definately too young, but in NC the law is that 16 is the legal age BUT with only a 5 year difference..so how would that work b/c he was 17 he just went 5 years younger than older!
