Question: What is Indianas Romeo and Juliet law?

To combat this devastating effect, the Indiana General Assembly passed the Indiana Romeo and Juliet law, which allows juveniles who are 14 and 15 years old to give legal consent to sex in certain cases and provides legal defenses for defendants charged with sexual misconduct with a minor.

Can a 30 year old date a 16 year old in Indiana?

In Indiana, its considered child molestation to have sex with a child younger than 14, who cannot consent to sex. In most circumstances, its also illegal for someone older than 18 to have sex with someone younger than 16, under the states laws on sexual misconduct with a minor.
