What Are Child Sexual Abuse Laws in Georgia?
My son, 26 years of age now- 16 years old at the time that the alleged offense(s) were committed and told me committed in Carrollton and Paulding Counties, GA, admitted to me having coercive sex at that time with alcohol involved and supplied by a 36 year old woman friend of mine (Perp). My son then claimed to me at the same age of 16 ....that the 36 year old friend of mine friend seduced/coerced him to engage in penetration sex and oral sex. My question is this though my son now is 26 years of age---I am having a dispute with my parents to validate the GA State or County law that I was told to me/I viewed back at that time... Coercion was involved. The female, then 36 year old (Perp), told my son, then (age 16,) that he could not see her daughter whom he wanted to date unless he had sex with her (the mother of the 14 year old female child)...When disclosed to me that it had happened... I went to both counties-- who let me view the books---who said--and I read_that because he was 16 and male and because the Perp, even though 36 years of age, was female.... They couldn't prosecute. They said, however -if he had been female and 16 years old and the Perp was male and 36 years old--- they would have been able to prosecute. They said that it could be pursued, possibly if it happened in TN, and where he and I currently resided at the time -but I told them it did not happen in TN. Please help settle this question and law matter between my father and me....Could they have prosecuted the woman, who along with my 16 year old son, admitted to me that they had sex , both oral and intercourse?
