Re: statutory rape

go to Purdon's consolidate statutes annotated. check the index for title 18, relating to crimes and offenses. look under rape and then the sub-section statutory. you will find that the age of consent is 14. considera also researching the law of a related offense, that of corruption of a minor.

good luck
