Q: if a 21 year old sent a few nudes to a 13 year old and she got in his car, what would police do to the 21 year old?
i recently went to the police station and reported a 21 year old man sending nudes to me and getting me into his car, he never sexually touched me or even talked to me in his car and let me out after 30 seconds. (i’m 13) i know the nudes are illegal but i was just wondering what they’d do to him.
A:
If he doesn't have any prior history, it's probably just the misdemeanor of "Communicating with a Minor for Immoral Purposes". Can carry jail, but doesn't necessarily. Does include requirement to register as a sex offender.
If he does have prior criminal history, can be a totally different situation.
Since you will be listed as the victim in the case, you can call the police and they will update you on what happens to him. Once the case is forwarded to the prosecutor's office, you can also call them and they will give you updates and let you know what is going to happen.
