statutory rape by 20 yr old female with 14 year old male resulting in child birth
Mississippi
My child has been destroyed by this. She has given birth to the baby she lives everywhere, no job welfare, no car but while taking my sons future, she only thought of her self he was 14, shes 21, what do i do. he wants nothin to do with her or her family. He will never get over this. his life is a mess because of her choice. Whats going happen to her and the baby if we press charges can we take her. The statutory rape laws has no gender bias. At age 14, your son is the "victim" of a criminal sexual violation under Mississippi law. If a child was born and your son is the father he has parental rights and obligations even at the age of 14. If she was arrested and charged with Statutory Rape and held in custody, it is likely the child would become a ward of the state and the court would determine what living arrangements are suitable and in the best interests of the child; the child may be placed with relatives or in foster care. It would be in your son's best interests to allow him to seek legal advice from an attorney. |
