Legal Question in Family Law in California

Consented intercourse

I want to know if a young man I know, 18 years old has had a relationship with a 15 year old girl with the knowledge of her father and grandparents can he be prosecuted for rape? Her guardian has already signed a permission for marriage.

Re: Consented intercourse

Until they are married or she is 18 it is rape and if she gets pregnant they have DNA proof and no need for testimony from her. That is probably one of the least of their worries, since, if they marry they probably won't be prosecuted. What they should both worry about is marrying someone who is so young and immature. Try giving them that advice, its more important than the rape advice. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
