| | |  Statutory Rape
What is the name of your state? Texas - I have a friend who is 24 and has been involved in a relationship with an underafe girl for about a year. The girl is 15. He obviously is naive because he thought that if she and her parents consented that he could not get in trouble for this. I told him that he can still be arrested for statutory rape. He now wants to end the relationship with her because he does not want to go to jail over this girl. However, when he tried to break it off with her she threatened to turn him into the police for statutory rape. She has told him that if he ends it he will end up in jail. She is blackmailing him into continuing in a relationship that he doesn't want to be in and one that is illegal. Is there anything he can do? It is obvious that he screwed up by even starting a sexual relationship with her but he wants to do the right thing and correct that mistake. Any advice? |
