Statutory rape is a strict liability offense so none of those extraneous factors matter. Essentially, Is the person under the age of consent, did you engage in a sexual act with that person, if so you're guilty.


I believe in California that is 100% untrue.

I’m no expert but recall that during the Matt araiza case that her being underage had a component of her representing she was in college and of age that could potentially get him cleared of the statutory piece

The Araiza case was about evidence, or lack thereof, that he or any of the accused, engaged in any sexual activity with the accuser. At least from I recall.

A girl that may the one in question posted on social media a pic of them together in bed that said she "just fricked josh giddey".

And now the cops in Newport Beach CA are involved.

No idea about California, but in many states sleeping with a minor is one of the few criminal acts that don’t require intent. You can be in a 21+ establishment, she could have an ID that says 25 and she could even look 30, if she is in actuality under the age of consent then that’s a crime
In my opinion, the laws are ridiculous. There is a gigantic difference between a 21 year old young person sleeping with a 16 year old who seems of age and presents herself as being of age and like a 40 year old dude seeking out some young underage girl. Yet people treat it as if it’s the same thing.

Even calling Josh Giddey a pedo. It’s absolutely nuts.

Here’s an article in the LA Times from 1997 that shows how different people treated this issue as recently as then:

Probably, but if she doesn't cooperate how do you "prove" they actually had sex?
