Simply a matter of resources (using what I can find) and also the fact that I'm not very knowledgeable on the subject about all the different uniforms (as not living in the US), but I understand your point and the fact it can be immersion breaking for people noticing.
Never noticed, but what I think should happen to those 2 asshole cops is some rough treatment on there asses
Oh, I see what you mean, and yes, Zorlun just confirmed it is supposed to be California, so, we could check the law in California if we wanted to be precise.
, although I occasionally do get in long exchanges about it, and I like some psychological aspects of some characters, because I can recognise elements that I know are quite close to, or very, realistic.You don't need to check. I told you in the post. It's rape in Arizona and Colorado. But in every other state ( including California) it would be sexual assault. In all those states, if there's no penetrative sex, then it's not regarded as rape. But sexual assault is still a very serious offence, with a maximum penalty of 20 years.Oh, I see what you mean, and yes, Zorlun just confirmed it is supposed to be California, so, we could check the law in California if we wanted to be precise.
But I admit that I have no intention of doing it, just because I don't want to start taking myself and the game too seriously
I am more curious for the incest part, since I do that patch, so I checked that again - curiously, it seems it would be a crime, and would be punished by imprisonment in the State prison, but without indication of minimum or maximum length (so, apparently, one day or even less, could already satisfy the law), and registation as sex offender for 20 years (after sentence or release).
The thing about California I still remembered, is the age of consent being an absolute 18 (meaning, it is fellony even if they are both under 18), though apparently with some divergences (but only in civil courtsYou must be registered to see the links) and with anyway some variability in penalty depending on the ages.
Nope, I checked when I looked again for the incest patch. Marc is agreeing, so it would no be rape, although given the age difference, would still be a fellony, and in the case of the incest patch, incest.
, a crime of which at times I am guilty myself . , and/or being sucked irresistibly in by the truth , and therefore decide for Myriam.
I'm almost certain, that in the whole world, unawareness, ignorace, don't exime you from the Punishment, or sentece.
Surely you know and have visited the Spankbang site. There's quite a bit of that material there... erm... A friend told me about it.
I'm too lazy to really delve into this rape discourse that's being had - but consent is not a defense to statutory rape. By definition, statutory rape is an offense via statute, and there is no defense to it. Therefore, having sex with a minor would make you guilty of statutory rape, regardless of consent, or even a mistaken belief that the minor is of age. And while it's not rape in the sense that I guess you'd be thinking (forcible penetration, etc), it's rape because the belief is that minors cannot give informed consent, so any sexual acts with a minor are forcible acts with a minor, basically.
Well, I never said that consent eliminates statutory rape, because I know it doesn't, that's why it is "statutory rape", and not just "rape".
I'm not sure where you're looking, but according to everything I'm seeing, California does have a law for statutory rape ( Penal Code 261.5). There are law offices online quoting that earlier this year, so it's definitely still active. Under that law it is illegal for an adult to have sex with a minor ( someone 17 or under), and by California Law that is regarded as rape. In Myriam's case though it would probably be charged as a misdemeanor, rather than a felony, which would reduce the penalty to a fine or at most a short jail term. The only exception to this law is for spouses who are no more than three years older than the minor
You're right it probably wouldn't be charged as a felony. That would require either a previous offence, or Marc claiming that it had happened against his will. It would almost certainly be charged as a misdemeanor, which probably would have meant a fine at most. But that wouldn't help Myriam, because her legal guardianship of Marc would be overturned, and he'd be taken into care by the authorities, till he turned 18.Well, I never said that consent eliminates statutory rape, because I know it doesn't, that's why it is "statutory rape", and not just "rape".
The source I found said California does not have statutory rape, but honestly, I did not go deeply on it, if you say it does have it, I can even believe you.
Just be careful that saying if someone older has sex with someone younger is a fellony (as even my sources said and was in my post), it is not the same as having statutory rape.
Statutory rape means that will automatically apply the rape law with the same penalties and indications as "normal" rape, not that .
Again, this is starting to become another long discussion, like the polemics about "incest was there originally or not", "Zorlun should make a campaign againt Patreon" etc.
I realise I contributed myself to making it long, my mistake, I am going to sign off from this whole discussion, although I admit one of my defects is that I am at times too easily dragged in this type of discussions
Just enjoy the game, in the end Zorlun never meant for the game to be a precise representation of reality, though I believe he did a good job in some aspects of the psychological side.
No, I've never visited that site. I'm not that interested in young women being obsessed with older guys. I don't have anything against it, and I'm quite happy for content like that to be included in this and other similar games. But it's definitely not a big interest for me. I was just responding to a question regarding the 'kinks' of another commenter, who I know for a fact is very interested in this type of content, and would like more of it in this game.
This is a discussion thread. And that inevitably means that people will have discussions, which occasionally end up discussing stuff that not a lot of people are likely to be interested in. Feel free to ignore it.
That means you are on the Myriam DOM "path", in the other paths, the scene was different.
