all I know is that there has only been one public allegation of statutory rape, with the evidence so weak, that the suspect was let go after questioning.

Where are the other cases?

you are a lawyer, you should know that just because a 15 year old girl is pregnant does not prove that statutory rape occurred. The father could be a minor.

btw, I am pretty certain that there is heckuva lot of statutory rape that is not being prosecuted in Dallas. There are a lot of teenage mothers among Hispanics with much older non-minor boyfriends who give birth. I'm pretty certain that this common occurrence is not being prosecuted.
