Statutory rape occurs when an adult is having sex
with a minor who is legally too young to consent to
sex. All states have statutory rape laws, but each
state defines the crime differently. In Nevada,
statutory rape takes place when a person age 18 or
older has sex with someone under the age of 16.

If the offender is under 21 years of age, the crime is a gross misdemeanor. The penalty is up to one year in the county jail and a $2,000 fine. If the offender is 21 or older, the crime is a felony. The penalty is up to six years in prison with a $10,000 fine.

I gotta believe it would. It might get the guy charged with child abuse, and it almost certainly would get him charged with criminal sexual conduct, even if you testify that you were a completely willing partner. That's a record that will follow him for the rest of his life, and ruin his chances at better jobs, maybe even college admission. Is a 60 second thrill worth that sort of guilt to you later on in life?

(And that's about how long a 16 year old boy will last)

You will want to consult NRS for the statute...but to make it easier on you, I have provided it here for you. Nevada Revised Statute 201.195 is what you want to read:


NRS 201.195 Solicitation of minor to engage in acts constituting crime against nature; penalties.

1. A person who incites, entices or solicits a minor to engage in acts which constitute the infamous crime against nature:

(a) If the minor actually engaged in such acts as a result and:

(1) The minor was less than 14 years of age, is guilty of a category A felony and shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for life with the possibility of parole, with eligibility for parole beginning when a minimum of 10 years has been served.

(2) The minor was 14 years of age or older, is guilty of a category A felony and shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for life with the possibility of parole, with eligibility for parole beginning when a minimum of 5 years has been served.

(b) If the minor did not engage in such acts:

(1) For the first offense, is guilty of a gross misdemeanor.

(2) For any subsequent offense, is guilty of a category A felony and shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for life with the possibility of parole, with eligibility for parole beginning when a minimum of 5 years has been served.

2. As used in this section, the “infamous crime against nature” means anal intercourse, cunnilingus or fellatio between natural persons of the same sex. Any sexual penetration, however slight, is sufficient to complete the infamous crime against nature.

no.

Statutory sexual seduction for anyone age 18 or older to engage in sexual intercourse with a person under age 16

One to five years in prison if the actor is 21 years of age or older. Up to one year in prison if he is under age 21
