1. well i was wondering if a girl that is 15 turning 16 in 2 months is going out with someone that just turned 25, could that someone go to jail?
2. what if the girl is not a virgin and the cops find out and they try to accuse the boy and she denies it could they file charges???
Thank you!
karenR answered Wednesday April 27 2005, 4:13 pm: Most definatley they could go to jail for a good long time.
I'm not sure about number 2. If a guy of 25 has to date a girl of 15, he has problems he needs to deal with. The girls parents can also press charges if they found out. The guy is a pedophile. [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
shootingstar25xo answered Tuesday April 26 2005, 7:54 pm: 1. Yes, that someone could go to jail. It is illegal for an adult (someone older than 18) to date a minor (18 or younger) more than two years younger than him/herself. In your case, the someone is about 10 years older, so he can get in a lot of trouble.
2. They can do tests and if they question it tell the truth. The tests can ususally determine who the boy was. And yes, they can always file charges. [ shootingstar25xo's advice column | Ask shootingstar25xo A Question ]
Missa8305 answered Tuesday April 26 2005, 7:03 pm: 1) Yes. It is illegal for an adult (18+) to engage in sexual activity with a minor (under 18).
2) Well, that depends on the circumstances. First, a doctor can not prove that she is, or isn't a virgin. Not unless she's had sexual intercourse in the past...72 hours. Or maybe it's 48? Not sure on this point. If she has, they can extract a sample of semen. If that sample isn't his, they can't PROVE that he did anything.
However, even if no one can prove that he did or didn't...That's where "he said/she said" rears it's ugly head. If she says that she had sex with this man, and that intercourse was non-consentual (he forced himself on her) he will be arrested. (This happened to a friend of mine. He was innocent, and the charges were eventually dropped when his accuser figured out they didn't have a proverbial leg to stand on.)
She could deny having sexual intercourse with this man at all. In such case, the legal system doesn't have a leg to stand on either. They have no evidence, not even a witness. But, beware the parent! Since she is still a minor, her parents could press charges instead.
I don't know whether you are the girl or the guy in this situation. You didn't say, and I don't blame you. I would like to say this...Going to jail, for even a couple days, is not a pleasant experience. And in this situation, he is running the risk, and could take the fall. If you are the girl, and you really care about him, you might want to break up with this guy. I know that really sucks for you both, but your parents probably won't like the idea of you dating an older man, and just might jump to conclusions. Very dangerous for him. If you are the guy, I would suggest you...Run. Run. Run...Please date a girl who is legally considered an adult and not a minor. Please! You don't want to go to jail.

XxKaTiExLeIgHxX answered Tuesday April 26 2005, 5:52 pm: yes to your first question, under the law you can be 18 and he can be 25 but being 15/16 and him being 25 he would get arrested.
to answer the second question yes they can find out and file charges which would make his case worse.
Hope I helped! [ XxKaTiExLeIgHxX's advice column | Ask XxKaTiExLeIgHxX A Question ]
Deebs answered Tuesday April 26 2005, 5:40 pm: Well in America (if thats were u at) then she can get arrested and they can find out if they did any activity. [ Deebs's advice column | Ask Deebs A Question ]
baybexmau831 answered Tuesday April 26 2005, 5:38 pm: 1.) if they're in america and have slept together than yes, he can get arrested because the female is under 18
2.) well the doctors can probally find out ,if she has been sexually active lately, who she has been sexually ative with by running tests
craazylau answered Tuesday April 26 2005, 5:28 pm: If your boyfriend is sleeping with you then yes this is illegal in America as you're under 18. Therefore , it may seem really unfair but yes he could be charged and end up in jail. Hope it all works out ok [ craazylau's advice column | Ask craazylau A Question ]
Karen answered Tuesday April 26 2005, 4:59 pm: For your first question, yes, that someone could go to jail because it's illegal for a 25 year old to be dating a 15-16 year old, since you need to be 18 years or older to date a 25 year old.
For your second question, yes, police officers could file charges. If your parents knew you weren't a virgin before you started dating this guy, then they can tell the police that and they will then not file charges. [ Karen's advice column | Ask Karen A Question ]

Answers4Evrything answered Tuesday April 26 2005, 4:42 pm: Answer to #1 is definitely jail bait. Someone over 18 is liable to go to jail.
DeeplyInLove102203 answered Tuesday April 26 2005, 4:38 pm: Well i wouldnt tell people about this because yes he could because that is considered rape so i would keep it on the down low... and im not sure about your second question yes they could probably but i wouldnt really worry to much about that just dont go around telling people that your dating some one who is like 9-10 years older than you... well i hope i helped if you need anything just ask*
