State Law

Any adult found guilty of having sex with a minor must serve a mandatory jail sentence of three years. A girl’s father found out, through her diary, that she was having sexual relations with her eighteen-year-old boyfriend; she is only fourteen. The girl’s father makes the D.A. prosecute the boyfriend. You are on the jury and you have no doubt of a sexual relationship between the adult and the minor. The judge reminds you that if you believe them guilty you are obligated by law to say so. How, and why, do you vote?
