The new laws that were forced into existence by activists protect guys from this. If they are within 2 years of each other, it is not a crime. I guess they figured a 19 year old shouldn't be messing with a 16 year old, but turning 18 does not immediately make it an offense. Unfortunately, the state senate did not approve the overturning of the convictions from prior cases. Once you are labeled a Sex Offender, you cannot get rid of that label no matter what is later found or changed. They are too afraid of a true Sex Offender being removed from the list and being free to live in School zones, etc...
