ok now that I know more hes definately a criminal. In the first article not enough was stated about the parents, it just said they went to KS where marriage of a minor is legal with parental consent. So I only guessed they had no problems.
Now that I see the girls family objected as smart parents should the charges are valid now. I know they approved of the marriage but it was a last resort type of thing.
for sheesus
1. Why would they have a law that would allow teenagers to get married if they are going to turn around and charge them for a sex crime?
Nebraska doesnt have a law allowing teens to get married. They went to Kansas where the law is different. Now that we've seen proof that the parents have disapproved of this relationship I agree with the State of Nebraska for deciding to press charges.
2. If the parents consented to her getting married, they most likely did not have a problem with her having sex. If they gave consent for sex, would it be a crime?
I think this was a poor parenting judgement. They realized the baby needed a stable environment however they were not smart enough to see adoption as that environment. The parents might have thought the girl would lash out if she was unable to marry this man so in their minds they did the right thing.
Now that Ive seen more on the parents wishes the man is a criminal and should be brought to trial.
