so is it then this way , minors can have sex with eachother if they have their parents promission ?
what is the legal terms of minors having sex between minors
edit on 28-9-2010 by zerbot565 because: silly legal question
After the boy's parents complained to San Jose police's internal affairs unit about the officer's behavior, both teens ended up criminally cited by police for having underage sex.
The controversial intervention began soon after the officer found out that his teenage daughter had sex with the boy when he visited her during a baby-sitting job.
When the officer found out, he rode his motorcycle at the end of his shift -- straight from work -- to the boy's house, a few blocks from his own home.
Then the officer made him drop a Sprite and placed handcuffs on the boy.
He said when the officer first approached him he began yelling and called him "a piece of (expletive)."
The grainy 5-minute, 36-second video shows the officer standing near the handcuffed boy and sternly telling him that it was "not a good thing that the person you had sex with is a cop's daughter" and that "the district attorney will probably file charges. ... A cop's daughter is not somebody you mess around with. You're stupid."
After lecturing the boy for minutes, the officer unlocked the handcuffs and quietly told the parents he was not going to arrest their son after all. He just wanted to scare him, he said, and he handed the parents an arrest card that he suggested they put up on the refrigerator to make sure the boy did not forget.
But the Villarruels say that the officer had no permission to intervene with their son, pretend to arrest him or come into their home.
"We thought he was there to arrest our son,'' the boy's mother said. "He was in full cop mode the whole time."
Tony Boskovich, an attorney representing the boy's family, said. "What right does he have to use his uniform, his gun, his handcuffs if all he is is a dad?''
Terry Bowman, the lawyer representing the officer, said: "Most people can understand how this father felt and why he did what he did. It is a shame if the young man's parents lose sight of the importance of the message because they have chosen to focus on what the girl's father was wearing."
When first interviewed for this story earlier in the week, police told the Mercury News that there was no specific written policy that dealt with officers investigating cases in which there is a personal conflict. The Mercury News has since discovered a policy that states officers "will avoid becoming officially involved in quarrels or disputes occurring in their own neighborhoods, unless the incident involves an immediate threat to human life."
There is also a section of the officer's code of ethics which states: "I will never act officiously or permit personal feelings, prejudices, animosities, or friendships to influence my decisions."
So what if it was the other way around the girl had instigated the sex? So the young man was raped? Is this what you are trying to tell me. Your logic is off the wall on this subject.
I'm pretty sure anyone who takes advantage of a 14 year old (whether she thinks she is able to consent or not) should be having words with people in authority - be it teachers, cops or judges.
