Legal Question in Discrimination Law in California
I have a friend that is 18 still in high school, he has a girlfriend that is 16. The parents left these two alone and didnt come back until 2 to 3 a.m and found them having sexual relations would this kid be charged for anything even though the parents gave them permission to be together?

Yes. It is called statutory rape.

Does the term statutory rape ring a bell? A felony for which he could face prison and lifetime registration as a sex offender.
