Blameless Rapist?

Consensual Rape by 15 Year Old - Human Rights Implications
R v G (Secretary of State for the Home Department intervening)
[2006] EWCA Crim 821
12 April 2006
Daily Law Notes Report Summary
Legislation creating an absolute offence could subject a defendant
to conviction in circumstances where he had done nothing
blameworthy and prosecution for such an offence might infringe the
defendant’s human rights. However, the legislation would not
render the trial under which it was enforced unfair nor would it
infringe the presumption of innocence.
