Learned about strict liability in stat rape cases

[Deleted member 4614]

We are literally in clown world

In half of the states in the US, statutory rape is not a crime that requires intent, basically. So, if you are an adult and a girl shows you her ID showing she is 21, and you have sex with her, and it is later found out she is a minor with an excellent Fake ID, you still committed statutory rape, because intent is not required.

Literal matriarchy JFL at this.

In most states, it doesn't matter if the defendant thought the victim was older than the age of consent. Statutory rape is considered a "strict liability" crime—one that doesn't require proof that the defendant knew the victim's underage status. To prove statutory rape in a strict liability state, the prosecutor only needs to prove the defendant had sex with an underage person. It doesn't matter if the sexual partner claimed to be, or looked, the age of consent. (Another example of a strict liability offense is speeding—you can get a speeding ticket whether you meant to speed or not.)

In many states, statutory rape is considered a strict liability offense. In these states, 22 as of 2007, it is possible to face felony charges despite not knowing the age of the other person, or even if the minor presented identification showing an age of eighteen or higher. The American Law Institute's Model Penal Code generally restricts strict liability to minor offenses ("violations").[14]

And you would be wrong, faggot, in half of the states in the US.

Can't see how it would hold in court (even if it's technically written) the girl is obviously mislead you, you're not god, just a human. but then again, US is a schizo land.

It is not a hold in court thing. It is completely irrelevant to the crime nigga. Imagine you are speeding on freeway but ur speedometer is broken so u thought u aren’t speeding. Whether or not you thought you were is not even part of the crime statute.

If your state (28/50) does not permit a mistake of age defense, then you are shit out of luck.
