How to I file a charge of statutory rape against a 19 year-old male who is having sex with a 15 year old girl? What proof do I need. I live in Suffolk County, NY

A 19 year old and a 15 year old engaged in sexual activity is a violation of state law. Generally speaking, very little evidence is required to open an inquiry or investigation. Procedures very from state to state, city to city. Your local police will be able to answer this question my better than we can.

If you are a parent of the 15 year old, go directly to the police and file a report. Try to have the 19 year old's name and any information you can get about him. It will be up to police and the district attorney to investigate the matter. The minor does not have to agree or be cooperative, though it helps if she is.

If you are not a parent, you can still report this to police directly however, it may be wise to get the parents involved.
