CBS Dallas story

          This CBS Dallas story discusses a bill passed by the Texas Legislature in May, 2011, which addresses (to a small extent) the thorny issue of "Romeo and Juliet" crimes - meaning sex between older teenagers and younger adults (Juliet, in the Shakespeare play, was 14). Minors are not deemed legally able to "consent" to sex, but should we treat what is (at least to them) a consensual relationship between a 19-year-old and a 16-year-old the same way we treat truly forced sexual assault? How many Texas kids have incarcerated parents? We're not sure. http://gritsforbreakfast.blogspot.com/2018/10/forgotten-by-system-state-has-no-idea.html
