I have a few questions. I have a friend (a) who’s trying to prosecute someone else I know (b) who, I think may be doing something wrong. He has his reasons but he’s (b) in love with a 14 year old girl in washington and he’s 22 in the UK. I want to know the legality of his situation. I’m not for or against him. I’m worried, yet the situation demands justice. I just want an outcome.
evidence – second hand msn logs (a) has where (b) spoke to (a) about sexual chat with the 14yrold.
I’m told this won’t start an investigation since local logs are rewritable easy with html. What about if we (me and (a)) got her mother to put pressure on the police? There are likely forensic/logged recounts of their relationship on Skype, Facebook, or other niche community sites. Could be some evidence in the open that might start an investigation too, or else be unearthed by one.
My ethics are challenged in this case. I refuse to help either. But I want to know, the solid outcome. Both are good friends.
He thought the UK police won’t listen to an international inquiry from the US police like this and would just let him (b) go: it is simply too much effort without her camming for (b) or (b) literally flying over there. So even his scrapped plans to go, usually a bad felony, would not work?
But if that’s true or either way, if they start living together happily when she is 16 and therefore of age in WA and the UK, will these past misgivings still consistitute sexual felonies and/or increase police incentive in lieu of the lessened distance? Would the police still go after them, if the parent put similar weight on the case and the evidence was used?
