“He was 17. She was 16. She invited him in. And he DESERVES to be dead in your opinion?”
She is a minor child under the age of consent (17) and there is no exemption from prosecution even if both parties are under the age of consent. Tragic set of circumstances, but I can’t in the end fault the father if things really happened the way he says.
Not obeying commands from the daddy holding the gun is a bad move at any time, especially if he thinks you’re raping his daughter.
“She is a minor child under the age of consent (17) and there is no exemption from prosecution even if both parties are under the age of consent.”
From the Texas Penal Code, section 22.011 on sexual assaults:
“(e) It is an affirmative defense to prosecution under Subsection (a)(2):
(1) that the actor was the spouse of the child at the time of the offense; or
(2) that:
(A) the actor was not more than three years older than the victim and at the time of the offense”
