Legal Question in Criminal Law in Wisconsin

Re: Talking to a 16 yo on the phone.

It depends upon what you plan to say! There are plenty of ways to get into trouble with anyone, (whether an adult or a minor) using nothing more than the telephone, including enticement, solicitation of an illegal act, harassment, violation of court orders, extortion, conspiracy, wire fraud, etc. In fact, most crimes in existence can be initiated with nothing more than a phone call, regardless of where you live or where the person on the other end of the phone line lives. If you can clarify what you intend to do over the phone with the 16 year old, I would be happy to further clarify my answer.
