Pennsylvania state law states:
"§ 3122.1. Statutory sexual assault:
Except as provided in section 3121 (relating to rape), a person commits a felony of the second degree when that person engages in sexual intercourse with a complainant under the age of 16 years and that person is four or more years older than the complainant and the complainant and the person are not married to each other."
Thus my question, does the four year age gap apply when over the age of 16? i.e. Can a 22 yr old have sexual relations with a 17 yr old? The age gap is greater than 4 years, but both are older than 16, the age of legal consent in Pennsylvania. Thanks.
