Does anyone actually believe the government? This is the oldest trick in the book.

Sounds like it was some kind of setup or something.. but also the TOS of the website he met her on says all participants must be 18 so there was no reason for him to think she was underage.

Should have gone to Canada:

"It is now illegal for adults in Canada to have sex with a partner under the age of 16, one of the new provisions of the Tories' violent crime law that came into effect on Thursday.The Tackling Violent Crime Act raises the legal age of sexual consent in Canada to 16 from 14, the first time it has been raised since 1892.

But the law includes a "close-in-age exception," meaning 14- and 15-year-olds can have sex with someone who is less than five years older.
The Tories said they raised the age, in part, to deal with internet predators. The new law puts Canada's age of consent in line with those in Britain, Australia and most of the United States."

In North America, the legal age of consent relating to sexual activity (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_sexual_behavior) varies by jurisdiction.
The age of consent (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_consent) in Canada (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada) is 16. As of August 2018, each U.S. state (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._state)has set its age of consent at either age 16, age 17, or age 18.
The age of consent in Mexico (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexico) is complex. Typically, Mexican states have a "primary" age of consent (which may be as low as 12), and sexual conduct with persons below that age is always illegal. Sexual relations which occur between adults and teenagers under 18 are left in a legal gray area: laws against corruption of minors (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_of_minors) as well as estupro (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_North_America#.22Estupro.22) laws can be applied to such acts, at the discretion of the prosecution. These laws are situational and are subject to interpretation.
The ages of consent in the countries of Central America (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_America) range from 14 to 18.
The below is a list of all jurisdictions in North America as listed in List of sovereign states and dependent territories in North America (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sovereign_states_and_dependent_territories _in_North_America).

For HB:

"Section 159 of the Criminal Code criminalizes anal intercourse, but provides exceptions for a husband and wife, and any two persons 18 years of age or older. These exceptions do not apply if a third person is present, or if the anal intercourse takes place anywhere but in private.[14] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_North_America#cite_note-14) However, courts in Ontario (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontario),[15] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_North_America#cite_note-15) Quebec (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quebec),[16] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_North_America#cite_note-16) and Alberta (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alberta)[17] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_North_America#cite_note-17) have independently declared s. 159 to be unconstitutional as violations of the equality provision (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_Fifteen_of_the_Canadian_Charter_of_Rights_ and_Freedoms) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Charter_of_Rights_and_Freedoms)."

"According to retired Travis County Judge Charlie Baird, the website "SugarDaddyMeet.com" should not face any charges or be held liable in this case. In his mind, they did their due diligence to make sure she was 18. In that case, the liability would be on Wilson."

It would seem if you're using a service that requires a user to be 18 you would have a reasonable thought she'd be 18. No different than being in a bar that checks ID.

If anything this should destroy their service. What guy would want to use it now and meet anyone looking under 30?

Stay in Taiwan. Nothing here worth saving.

Pretty swift action considering Taiwan does not have an extradition treaty with the U.S. Someone higher than the local cops are pulling some strings.

"Cody Wilson charged with sexual assault on a child"

A 16 year old is now a "child."

If only he was a teacher in the bronx he'd get probation

He got her off of a site that "Escorts" use to make money, she was paid $500, she is a worker.

This is where the implanted micro chip becomes valuable! You can scan the chip to find out if a person is of legal age and is who they say they are. You can track consent via the chip. The time and date of the encounter will be recorded. The chip will have voice recognition and even be able to read emotions so if a person changes their mind and says no it will be recorded along with the other person's actions. Not only with verbal responses be recorded but emotional. So even if a person doesn't say no but is feeling uncomfortable, this will be recorded.

See all these problems will be solved.
