if there was a sixteen year old girl and her boyfriend was twenty two, if she got pregnant and the parents did not want to press charges,can the boy still get in trouble with the state? even if he is supporting her and everybody else is ok with it?

If the minor was over the age of 16 and became pregnant, there should be no cause for prosecution under the sexual offense laws of Alabama.

If the minor was under the age of 16 and became pregnant the boyfriend would be at risk of prosecution under the sexual offense laws of Alabama even if the parents don't press charges. When violation of a state law is apparent, it is the state's prosecutor who determines if charges will be filed.

Section 13A-6-67
Sexual abuse in the second degree.

(a) A person commits the crime of sexual abuse in the second degree if:

(1) He subjects another person to sexual contact who is incapable of consent by reason of some factor other than being less than 16 years old; or

(2) He, being 19 years old or older, subjects another person to sexual contact who is less than 16 years old, but more than 12 years old.

(b) Sexual abuse in second degree is a Class A misdemeanor, except that if a person commits a second or subsequent offense of sexual abuse in the second degree within one year of another sexual offense, the offense is a Class C felony.
