I would hope they're not free to do whatever they want, but I certainly think jailing someone for it is wrong. Couselling for both the 12 year old and her parents would make more sense. The 45 year old's sheer embarressment of being caught, and having his wife and own children told should be enough to make him change his ways, or is it? seize his computer and search it for underage porn to find a better indication of whether he's a pedo or not. My cousin was 14 and looked like a damn near full grown adult. If a 12 year old looks fully developed and you checked her out before knowing her age, are you a pedo?
Ehh... it's not clear cut either way. We draw the line at the age of consent, which in CANADA is 14. Everywhere has different laws, but the truth is, we're all fundamentally programmed by evolution to want post-pubescent girls, anything other than that and you're in pedo-territory.
