    Question: What is the punishment for Sex with a minor?

    Answer:

    Sexual conduct with a minor who is under fifteen years of age is a class 2 felony and a class 6 felony with a minor who is over fifteen years of age. (ARS § 13-1405)

     

    The punishment for sexual conduct with a minor varies depending on who the offender is and what kinds of prior convictions they may have.

     

    In general, under Arizona Law (ARS § 13-604.01) the minimum punishment for a person convicted of sexual conduct with a minor in the first degree is a term of seventeen years in prison and registration as a sex offender.

Believe it or not he has called and appoligised saying he doesn't know what got into him. Swear's he will stay away from her.Should I just press charges. He is also the father of a 1 1/2 year old baby girl and doesn't want to go to jail. My daughter also states she will no longer see him. What should I do?

    My 19 year old son had sex with a girl that he thought was 16 and here found out she was 3 weeks from 13 so he then cut it off and told her not to call him. Even though it was consensual he is facing 5 years for Rape. This is also her second time charging someone for the same thing. She had sex with another 19yr. old prior to my son.
