I actually think it is entirely reasonable to expect an adult to engage in behaviour that would avoid this situation.

Since they are the, you know… ADULT in the situation, right? Again, this is not rocket surgery.

I do worry about age of consent laws where they potentially criminalize ordinary teen sexuality (e.g. where it is illegal for a 17-year-old to have sex with an 18-year-old).

Many states do have laws about that specific case (though not all).

I also think that 20+ years in prison would be extremely draconian for the alleged crime.

I don’t… it was clear he just wanted to sleep with a teenager and didn’t care to find out if she was legal or not.
