If you are convicted as a sexual predator, yes you would have to register as one. There is a chance you could receive less time if you are found guilty for good behavior. And the reason why laws are so screwed up is because there are people out there making foolish and stupid decisions, unfortunately. Why not have her testify in court and tell the JP that?

You do realize don't you that you have just confessed not only to underage drinking and possession of alcohol, but apparently to underage indecency.
Now, if your local constabulary can trace this back to you, it will serve as a confession in court.
This was not a smart thing to write.
Just because they arrested you for it does not mean that they had enough information about it to actually build up a court case against you about it.
But now there is.
If they can just tie it back to you.
Not a smart thing at all.
In many states the age of consent is eighteen.
IN some states, the age of consent is seventeen.
You must live in one of those states.
In some states the age of consent is sixteen.
You must not live in those states.
In the state of Washington, the age of consent is twelve, but only if both are in high school and only if the parter is no greater than five years older. If the age difference is greater, or if the older is attendng college, then the age of consent is eighteen. You clearly do not live there.
Just because it is a fact that you are not a predator of young girls, does not mean that the doublespeaking police can't use that word to incite a jury against you.
What did you expect?
If you loved this girl, really loved her, you would not have been so selfishly inconsiderate of her relationship with her parents.
When I was seventeen, I was dating a girl who was fourteen, whose parents didn't hate me. Mostly because I was struggling with a rule I had set for myself not to date anyone younger than sixteen, and not so I could start doing whatever I wanted with her, because I knew that the age of consent in that state at that time was eighteen, and when her parents offered to step in and chaperone us, I ran out of excuses to deny how much I cared for that Froshie.
You, on the other hand, seem to be concerned about nobody but yourself.
I don't think that the girls' parents hate you as much as they fear what you'll wind up wanting to do with their daughter.
I really think you should stop trying to call her 'your girl' and start thinking about maturing a bit intellectually and emotionally before you try to get anybody else's daughter into this kind of mess.
Again, I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but this whole "question" was not very smart, at all.

These laws are touchy, it will take the girl to be a witness for you...2 months apart I cant even believe the DA is wasting time or money in trying this case. I don't foresee this going to far. YOU notify the press make some noise stand strong, do you love her, and she you? consult with an attorney they have free consultations available. Good luck and for goodness sake DO NOT PLEA BARGAIN by any means. You're not guilty of an actual crime per-say.

so - if you cannot afford an attorney - ask for a public defender and one will be appointed for you
get some representation - do NOT go this alone
