10/29 Prositution is illegal in California. Let say, some horny 17 yr old
high school kid decide to buy a pop and got busted, should the
prositute herself be charged with child molestation for having
sex with a minor? This is what happening to Taiwan, as the
17 yr old kid and his guardian is not being charged, while
the prositute in the mainland is charged with child abuse.
I am wondring is there any similiar case in USA.
\_ Maybe they'd just make the 17 year old go back to school
so that he doesn't end up at America's top public university
posting to a public message board in broken English. Jackass.
\_ It would be statutory rape, but as the punishment for prostitution
is harsher, they'd probably forgo the stat rape charge. Now, if
there's proof that the kid paid for sex, they could charge him with
solicitation, but this is harder to prove.
\_ In the US the cops would walk away because the whole thing is too
messy and just not worth it.
\_ But then again most prostitute in the US are savvy enough to ask
whether you're over 18 before you're getting something. |
