What would happen if a 15 year old girl got pregnant by 20 year old in Texas no one is pressing charges? |
Answer
In Texas, if an adult engages in sexual conduct with a minor, with ot without consent, they have committed sexual assault. An affirmative defense to prosecution is they are not seperated by more than three years of age.
At times, the minors parents choose not to press charges; however, this does not prevent the state from acting as the complainant and pressing charges.
