I'm 17 yrs. old and my boyfriend is 19 yrs. old. My Mom doesn't like my boyfriend. She has found out that we have had sex. She wants to press charges for statutory rape. Considerng that I'm above the age of consent, can she do that?
At 17 years of age in the state of Georgia, you can no longer be a victim of statutory rape. Your mom can file a complaint since you are under the age of 18 and still in your parents legal authority; however, there would be no statutory rape charges filed against your boyfriend by the District Attorney as this law has not been violated. There is the possibility for different "non-sexual" offense charges to be filed against him if he was contributing to your deliquency; such as causing you to miss school, supplying alcohol, cigarettes, drugs, etc...
