We have a similar system online here for Collin County. There are 2 within 1/2 mile from me. 1 of which I knew about a block over. Both are indecency with a child. The one is really messed up though. He turned 18 and his (still 16 for a couple of months) girlfriend gave him oral. Her parents found out and called the police. Now he is a sex offender. They changed the law in Texas, where it is not categorized as a sex offense if they are within 2 years of each other. From my understanding, it can still be prosecuted, but it is not a "Sex Crime", if that makes any sense. Unfortunately for this guy, it came too late for him, as they did not allow the overturning of prior convictions.
