Legal Question in Family Law in Ohio

I need help im scared.

I'm 17 i am also pregnant. In the past my stepdad raped me and my mom knew about it but when she finially called the cops he got out on not guilty. I am scared that he will do the same to me again or my daughter because my mom has let him back in the house with us. I want to live with my boyfriend and get married but my mom said no. there are no emancipation lawyers near me to help me. So can i run away with my boyfriend without us getting into trouble? i am still in school and i work. my boyfriend also works and has a apt big enough for us and the baby.

I suggest contacting juvenile court in the county where your live as soon as you are able. They will offer you guidelines because you are a minor.
