If statutory rape has occurred the prosecutor would charge him, she doesn't have to even agree.
ever heard of nick johnson? doesn't seem to always work that way, unfortunately
Absolutely NOT defending Johnson here, but also believe it's imperative to stick with laws established. The team members that NJ was banging were in their 20s.
He’s only 21. I’m not advocating what he allegedly did but a lot of 15 & 16 year olds look advanced beyond their years and if she lied about her age it’s understandable.
Some of you holier than thou people calling a guy a “sicko” and a “loser” when you don’t know all of the circumstances 🙄
Methinks those that make the loudest noise about this probably have something to hide.
If she is 16, he has no legal issues (age of consent in Oklahoma, and many other states).
If she's 15, he has problems
I mean that's it in a nutshell.
What will be difficult is determining if any "stuff" happened before she turned 16 and I'm not sure exactly how a DA determines this without her testimony.
And even if that happens I don't know if he has any rebuttal with respect to being misled about her age etc - it's just all so f--ing messy but we probably know where this is heading (he gets a slap on the wrist and it goes away).
Either way it so just mind blowing that he even gets himself into this position. Like dude, she's clearly very young - does it really even matter if she's 15 or 16? Really? You are in the NBA making 7 million bucks a year and can probably have your pick of a plethora of women that aren't still in high school. Playing in one of the most privileged and lucrative professional sports leagues in the world and you are messing round with kids still making tiktoks drinking lemonade? That's embarrassing.
yeah i'm no lawyer but i imagine that could change things if she was 15
i'm assuming she would have to press charges/cooperate though, right?
If statutory rape has occurred the prosecutor would charge him, she doesn't have to even agree.
Right - but then she essentially has to testify that she was in fact 15 when they had sex - will she do that? I guess Josh Giddey is going to find out real quick if she really did "love" him or was conniving enough to realize she could get herself a nice fat check cut to "give the right information".

I’m fully aware that he’s 21 (and that he’s a loser).
