    I actually went over the above statues.. unlawful contact with a minor actually doesn't work in our situation.. that deals with photography/video, prostitution, and enticing girls to have sex with others. and Yes pandora, I'm aware of that. However, sometimes, such things seem overbearing and too harsh. Sex in our country is very taboo in certain situations. Sometimes, things happen, and people can make something wonderful from it, and the law gets in the way. If she had been a few months older, there would be no concern. we would simply be a family starting out. A small amount of time making all the difference in the world. While some would argue with this, I simply disagree with it. But if it comes down to it, I suppose it will be up to my peers to decide. thanks again.

    6301 corruption of a minor absolutely applies

    6318 likely applies due to section 5901

    but that is something you can deal with if charged.

    and your peers? Not hardly. They aren't going to let a person that screws minors on the jury.

    jk - I understand your desire to demonize me due to your opinions of what is out of the ordinary, but "§ 5901. Open lewdness. A person commits a misdemeanor of the third degree if he does any lewd act which he knows is likely to be observed by others who would be affronted or alarmed. " This clearly does NOT apply in this situation. The undoing of this statute against me is in the very wording itself.

    The best advice we can give you is to get a lawyer. You very well may need one.

    Additionally, the girls medical team will be needing to mention to the authorities that they have a pregnant minor on their hands.

    I don't know the circumstances of your exposure to the child. It could apply, depending on the circumstances.
