This had me blew and not even in a good way. Like how in the world is this ok, the fact that a young girl was raped, and man cleared of the charges and not France is changing the laws to pretty much allow perverts to mess with young girls.

France is poised to change its statutory rape laws after a man was acquitted of raping an 11-year-old after the prosecution was unable to prove it was not consensual.

Under French law, having sex with someone aged 15 or under is illegal but prosecutors have to prove it is non-consensual as there is no legal minimum age below which it is presumed in law that a child cannot consent.

But now equalities minister Marlene Schiappa wants a legal minimum age set at between 13 and 15-years-old.

She said: “The law will mean that ‘below a certain age, there can be no debate, ever, on the sexual consent of a child, and that any child below a certain age would automatically be considered as raped or sexually assaulted’”.

She was speaking following the acquittal of a 29-year-old man in the Seine-et-Marne district of Paris who was accused of raping an 11-year-old in a park in 2009.

He was found not guilty by a jury as the prosecution could not prove the girl did not consent to the act.
