FRANCE MAY LOWER AGE OF CONSENT TO 13, MAN ACQUITTED OF RAPING 11-YEAR-OLD
In news that many will find deeply disturbing, the French authorities are considering a move to lower the age of sexual consent to just 13.
It follows a case that saw a 28-year-old man acquitted of a raping an 11-year-old girl as relations were deemed to be consensual.
Justice Minister Nicole Belloubet has suggested that setting the age of consent at 13 is a limit that is apparently worth considering.
She said that: “The question of the age below which the minor’s consent is presumed not to exist is crucial, because there are obviously extremely shocking and unacceptable situations.
“13 years is a possible milestone, the judge must also be able to assess individual situations, but the age of 13 could be retained.”
Absolute madness.
