Re: criminal sexual abuse

Hello. This topic has been discussed quite alot recently. If a girl is

16 years of age, a boy as young as

17 can be charged with rape and would

then have to register as a convicted

sex offender for the rest of his life in Illinois. In Cook County it is rare to see this happen, but it can

happen! Will be happy to answer any additional questions that you may have on this topic.
