Oregon is my friend's state.
Hello all,
My friend has been wondering about a current situation of his and I want to help him. I am in a hurry today so I will attempt to be as brief as possible.
Okay, here is how it began...
My friend in Oregon, age 21, met a Californian girl, age 16, online, via Yahoo! Instant Messenger, as he was searching for a new online friend, and now he and the girl are dating, in fact for the the past two months, March, April, and now through the beginning of May, the year 2005, they have been talking on the phone to each other, and have been officially dating over the internet.
My friend wants to know if phone sex is illegal, and what actions, sexual or not, are illegal for him to initiate, and for his girlfriend to initiate anything. What is legal and what is illegal? May this situation for my friend jeopordize him legally, and if so, how exactly does it jeopordize him if he does at least one specific action towards his girlfriend, if any? Should I worry or do something to help my friend if this may appear to be a related pedophile case, even if it takes place online? Please help me, I do not want him to get in any legal trouble with the law, California, Oregon, or otherwise. Please direct me to the appropriate resources currently available that pertains to my friend's possible reccomended predicaments. Thank you all very much for any input. I will be back eventually to read your posts, if any.
