    True, but 17 ain’t exactly a child. My gf and I were fucking like rabbits at that age.

      The adult brain doesnt hit full maturity until 25, so 17 is still pretty young.

      But either way, he was in his late 30s when he paid $900 to have sex with this 17 yr old child, transported her across state lines, then supplied her with booze and cocaine.

      That still just normal behavior?

        20 years apart, even. He was 37 when he trafficked her at 17.

        The difference in their ages was greater than her entire life.
