[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The 14 year old girl did not commit entrapment or fraud. Those are legal terms and her actions do not fall under the definition of those terms. The young man here is the one who committed a crime, statutory rape, through his own reckless behavior. Let's not blame a child for the actions of an adult.

Real life is not so black and white.  I know, I know.. "the law says.."

It's a good thing nothing more happened.  She went on a website meant for adults, and I would think that wasn't by accident.  She agreed to have sex.  She could be dead, with her killer running free.  Someone needs to protect this kid from herself.

By legal definition or not, she did misrepresent herself.  I've never used such an app but I expect she had to willingly misrepresent herself just to use it.

The courts and one or a few people here may not think a 14 year old is capable of such things but I certainly hope her parents do and impose very strict limits on her.

I wonder (just a thought) if the owners/makers of the app could somehow charge her for breaking the terms of use?  Or is she too young for that too?[/quote]

The young girl's parents should certainly deal with her and take action to keep her safe in the future from young men looking to have sex with girls they have only just met for the first time. Her actions have no bearing on the fact that this young man committed the crime of having sex with a minor child.
