uk_martin 1,606 Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) Check out the article I linked to above."Innocent until proven guilty" is a nice theory but if all it takes is the victim's say so that "he diid it" then it doesn't hold much water does it?

Tsunami 10,219 Posted June 1, 2016 This post is so factually incorrect it's staggering. Agreed. In fact it was reported in court that before meeting her one time, he Goggled what the age of consent was and discussed the subject with fellow players. He knew her age and took the risk.

thecoombdog 2,367 Posted June 1, 2016 And that happens a lot and the offender doesnt stand a chance due to the way the cps view such cases. Just recently the case with the Sunderland player. Got the guy years in jail and life wrecked. He knew exactly how old that girl was and still pursued her. He got exactly what he deserves. Plus his missus is a worldie so he deserved a year for cheating on her! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave67 15 Posted June 1, 2016 FWIW for it to be rape in England & Wales child has to be under 13. Above that age it becomes unlawful sexual activity with a child. This is presuming consent either way consent cannot be given if under 13... Can't comment about Swedish law mind... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Stadia 1,071 Posted June 1, 2016 FWIW for it to be rape in England & Wales child has to be under 13. Above that age it becomes unlawful sexual activity with a child. This is presuming consent either way consent cannot be given if under 13... Can't comment about Swedish law mind... However,as we know, in this country, sexual activity by an adult with a young person under 16 is treated very severely and does not allow for special circumstances. Although it's not black or white, in terms of whether it is an offence, it is. If you are a male age 16 to say 21, I can see how you could easily fall into a bad situation, if you are either told lies or just assume. But over 21, I am sure you have a good idea yourself. Mind you, a lot of young men these days go for the cougars and MILFS! (so I am told!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
