My question involves criminal law for the state of: CA
I have 2 questions.
1. Suppose I sleep with a 17 year old 1 hour away from legal age and am caught and the officer decides to press charges.
Will the prosecutor or judge seriously go through with the case and say that she couldn't give consent and that means I committed rape?
2. Suppose she's 1 week away from turning 18 and we go to a country overseas where the legal age of consent is 16 and we have sex and we come back and she presses charges and even has evidence. Will I be charged for commiting a "crime" overseas?
These are all hypothetical questions but I just want straight answers to test the practicality of our judicial system and measure the common sense of most prosecutors, attorney, judges, and jurors.
I sincerely ask because I am certain for the first question, the prosecutor would not hesitate to prosecute, and the jurors would not hesitate to find the defendant guilty. It just seems to me that the modern judicial and legal system have absolutely no common sense or any logic outside their ridiculous and rigid thinking and application of law.
Hopefully this doesn't sound like a rant but I've always wanted to know the answers to these questions.
