I know someone in this situation. Dated same girl in HS, he was sophomore, she was freshman. He graduated his still dating same girl, parents called police for statutory rape. He was 18, she was 17. Now he's 22 and has a conviction.
That's horrible. Met my high school boyfriend when he was a senior and I was a sophomore. Stayed together through my first year at college but finally broke up because I went away for school and the long distance thing wasn't maintainable long term. I'm glad my parents liked him and approved of the relationship. I can't imagine if they had gotten him charged with a crime. We're still friends and have been through a lot together as friends. He turned 60 last year.
This bill does not do that. Romeo and Juliet laws already exist in California. I repeat this bill does not cover that, it allows sexual abusers to rape minors.

California is one of 6 remaining states where those laws don't exist.
They dated for that long and the parents called the police when he turned eighteen?
