IN- Court: Inmates' sexual romps not a crime

Hey, its OK for an underage BOY (17 is a minor under the Adam Walsh Act) to have sex -in jail- with an adult woman (all over 18), but its a crime if it is a underage girl? Did the court miss something?

10-8-2009 Indiana:

The Indiana Court of Appeals says six inmates at the Greene County Jail didn't commit a crime when they sneaked into each other's cells to have sex.

The 2-1 ruling upheld Greene Superior Court Judge Dena Martin's decision dismissing escape charges against three men and three women. Martin ruled the inmates didn't commit a crime because they didn't intend to leave the jail.

Two appellate judges agreed, but Judge Ezra Friedlander issued a lengthy dissent Wednesday, reasoning that the inmates committed escape because they left the cells where they were ordered confined.

Court records say the men -- ages 44, 38 and 17 -- and the women -- ages 27, 26 and 21 -- crawled through the ceiling after midnight, having sex and drinking homemade alcohol. ..Source.. by AP
