You know, this isn't the first story of some perv being caught in some girl's closet. Meh.
Henry's arrest followed another incident involving minors in April.
He was accused of taking three minors from their Polk County subdivision and driving them to Clearwater Beach in the middle of the night without their parents' permission.
A report by the Polk County Sheriff's Office said he allowed them to drink alcohol in his vehicle.

So then I started reading the comments. That's usually where those golden nuggets of mass wisdom can be found.
"13 year old girls can't legally consent to sex"
"True in the legal sense"
So this got me thinking. Can a 13 year old consent to sex? Take the legal part out. I mean, is a 13 year old capable mentally of consenting? If you have kids, look at them. Imagine them 13. Now I know. We all have super uber smarty pants kids. They can count backwards from 1 million. They are amazing artists of self portraits of people as fish. Their question are sooo adorably curious. They must be geniuses!
Kids are dumb humans. That's not a put down. They just don't have the experiences of adults. So can they make an adult decision such as deciding to sleep with a 21 year old?
What say you?
