Basically as premptive strike in case the girl’s family finds out and decides he “raped” their daughter.
Jesus, you are obsessed with sex and rape. Men rape women by shaking hands, women rape men if they get pregnant, two teenagers have sex and your automatic thought process is that the girl’s family will cry “rape”…
Seriously, you need help. Medical help.
At this point, I’m thinking the Pit thread is accurate. Going for one last blowout?
There were sexually explicit photos on the phone’s camera. A nasty enough prosecutor could probably consider them pornography.
I don’t think it’s HIS phone you need be concerned about.
Have you looked at the news lately. People at least in America have gotten rather crazy when it comes to teenagers and sex. Nephew X is sixteen and yes, this could really screw up his life, if some tough-on-crime prosecutor decides there’s a crime going on. Being labeled a sex offender is no laughing matter.
Is your nephew supplied with condoms? It’d be a shame to have to kill the girlfriend when he knocks her up.
That certainly cleared everything right up! 
What is your attorney’s opinion?
So because you are so sex-obsessed and frightened over it, you are willing to ruin a young woman’s life by falsely accusing HER of rape, in order to protect your nephew on the off chance that her parents MIGHT POSSIBLY accuse him of rape, so that SHE could endure the “no laughing matter” of being labeled a sex offender for consensual sex with your nephew, for no other reason than she had the poor taste to choose someone in your family for her lover.
Lady, you are one of two things: 1) a lunatic; 2) an evil fucking harpy who has no problem fucking with others for fun.
Hence, the crux of the problem, I don’t know what’s out there in cyberspace. I’m sure there’s emails, texts, whatever evidence of the relationship out there. I know zip about this girl’s family and I am worried about digging for information now for fear they will start thinking something is wrong.
Yea, this? Doesn’t really help. Nice grab at the first Google link, though.
I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not. I’m assuming she’s from one the states where the age of consent is 17 or 18.
Did you try reading the part about the USA and states?
You could also try… talking to them. Tell your nephew that you want to meet his girlfriend and her family, because you think openness is important in your family. Pursuing legal action is going to leave everyone miserable.
You don’t know that, and that’s not what Frank asked. He asked YOU to prove that it’s illegal for two 16-year-olds to have sex where the lunatic lives, which you don’t know.
Yea, and? That’s totally less than helpful given that we don’t know where the lunatic lives.
I don’t have the patience to read through all fifty states, but a quick look shows that most have a “close in age” exception for two minors who are close in age. Interestingly, California does not. The situation described in the OP would be a misdemeanor in California (if Wiki is correct).
Hoooly shit you are loopy. Do you really think it’s a good idea to file rape charges against a 16 year old girl on behalf of your 16 year old nephew, when by all accounts they are having a consensual sexual relationship? What possible good could come of that? Are you so paranoid about someone accusing you of misconduct that you would potentially ruin the lives of two young people? God damn.
So unless she tells you the state she lives in, you won’t believe it? Considering it’s illegal in 19 states and legal in 38 states and D.C. according to the link, it’s not a stretch. She may well live in Illinois, where she’s mentioned she’s from in another thread. But go ahead and be snippy all you want.
