Sadly, not in New Jersey. That's part of the case pending against him, but it's a "gray area". I'm not the kind of gal to get up in arms about age or anything. But he's only seeking out 14/15/16 year olds, lying to them about his age, etc. If you've ever watched one of those Oprah specials where they talk about traits of a sex offender and how they groom their victims and make them feel like they need them, you're watching my entire "relationship" with the man.
Like I said, I am in no way against age gaps in relationships. Personally, I can't date someone younger/same age as me. Never really have been able to. I started college 3 years early, so all my peers are older than me. kwim? And I was really worried about pressing the charges in the first place because a lot of my male friends are between the ages of 19-23, so I didn't want them thinking bad of me, kwim? But even they said that I was doing the right thing. It's different when you're attracted to someone much younger than you because of their personality. But when you're only attracted to someone because of the fact that they're much younger than you, it becomes a problem.
