The very first thing you should do is seek advice from an attorney in this matter. The age of consent in Ohio is 16. Due to the fact that she is 12, the prosectution may charge you under Ohio Revised Statute 2907.02 Rape (A)(1b). [1] (URL http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/2907)

Ohio 2907.02 Rape

(A)(1) No person shall engage in sexual conduct with another who is not the spouse of the offender or who is the spouse of the offender but is living separate and apart from the offender, when any of the following applies:
(b)The other person is less than thirteen years of age, whether or not the offender knows the age of the other person.

If there was any alcohol or drug use involved, there may be other charges forth coming. It is in your best interest to have an attorney represent you in this case. Do not under any circumstances attempt to contact the girl or any member of her family directly. This will only lead to more problems for you.
