A cut off age has been determined, it needs to be set, or it's open season on all kids. This guy "knew full well" it was rape, and he's more powerful. Grown men have no problem saying no to kids if they WANT to. It's unrealistic to assume because this kid made one phone call that she is a seductress. Any 42 year old guy setting up meetings with his friends young daughter knows damn well he's crossing some serious fucking lines. The kid is probably stupid enough to think he in in love with her, and they are like Romeo and Juliet. That's how these sad fucks operate.
