These were a couple of questions that were thrown out in a criminal law class of mine back when I was in school that never really got answered...
In illinois, a person who has sexual relations with a person over 13 but under 17 and is not more than 5 years older than the person commits Criminal Sexual Abuse - 720 ILCS 5/15
1. If two 16 year old kids were engaging in sexual conduct, could they or would they both be charged with Criminal Sexual Abuse on each other?
2. If a person who has been emancipated from their parents but is still under the age of 17 has sexual relations with someone, would there still be a charge for Crim Sex Abuse?
