He thought she was SIXTEEN? So a 23 yr old was willing to have sex with a 16 yr old?? I was thinking he thought she might be 18 or even older. Sorry, but any sympathy I might have had for him just went out the window. Even if she was legal at 16, a 23 yr old seducing a 16 yr old is exploitative. He had no business getting involved with her even if he thought she was 16.
I hope the prosecutor throws the book at him.
I called him the other day of course he is flipping out because he has not heard from his lawyer but lawyers are busy. But my question even though her mom pretty much allowed all this to happen is there a way he can get out of it and the parents can be the ones in trouble?
Are you the HE? Why do you care so much?

In the state of ketucky parent consent is 16. The girls older sister ( which is my ex) she is 28 and is having sex with a 16 year boy. From what I know is his dad up and left him so he is staying with a friend
It would be easier if you could start this all over and give the pertinent information.Quote:

In your original question the minor was an adolescent female and the perpetrator was an adult male. It appears you have changed your story. Now it's an adolescent male having sex with an adult female.
Your story doesn't add up.

A 16 yr old will be likely to be flattered by the attentions of a 23 yr old and be more susceptible to exploitation. That is why it is reprehensible for your friend to have engaged in sex with this girl, even thinking she was 16. And I'm not surprised you broke up with the sister when she exploits 16 yr old boys.Quote:

What her parents knew about him or allowed has no bearing on his being prosecuted for statutory rape.
If he didn't have a place to live, he will soon. Probably not going to like it though.
I think you misread that. It's the OP's ex who had sex with the adolescent boy. She is the victim's (the 15 yr old girl) older sister.Quote:

I supect the perp is telling OP this because he rightly understands that it's none of OP's business, and OP may well have ulterior motives (probably involving his ex fooling around with another boy).Quote:

The girl ask her mother if he could move in with her the mother said yes. Few months later a incident happen the mom called the cops. The mother told the cops that she didn't know how old he was that there bedroom was a storage room.
We need the complete and honest truth in order to give the best advice possible. Your story has changed three-fold since the original question.Quote:

Stop twisting and turning things around here.
Again, what the mother knew or didn't know, allowed or didn't allow does NOT matter in him being prosecuted. You are telling us, that he knowingly had sex with a 15 yr old. That is the ONLY fact that will matter to a prosecutor, judge and/or jury. As long as the prosecutor can prove to a jury that he had sex with this girl he's going to jail. The only out for him would be a plea bargain. But plea bargains are generally offered when a case is weak. This sounds like a pretty strong case and I don't see the prosecutor being really amenable to a plea here.Quote:

The truth is that the parents knew how old he was and allowed him to move. The daughter lied to him about her age my friend found out and still stayed wit her
Can he use a false news report in court ? This issue was on the news
The reason y I care is because we been best friends for 7 years.
The FACT is that he had sex with an underage girl and by his own admission, knew she was underage. That is the ONLY fact that matters in his being prosecuted for statutory rape. Why can't you understand that?Quote:

Its nice you care about your friend, but why didn't you warn him about this family? Did you know he was having sex with the girl? If you did and you didn't tell him to get out of that house immediately, you weren't being a good friend.
For what purpose?Quote:

Otherwise, I fail to see what the news coverage of the case has to do with anything.
