Criminal records are forever.
It is providing a minor with illegal substances or influencing them in anyway to do things inappropriate for their age group. If you are over 18, you are an adult and should remember that you are no longer just their friend but their authority figure and need to use good judgment and guide them in all the right directions.
I was charged with contributing back in 2004. The maximum penalty then was up to a $1000 fine, a year in jail, or both. I plead guilty and received a $400 fine + court costs ($544.00 total). Mind you this was for Sarpy County. I do not know if other counties are different.
Yes. It would be child endangerment, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, serving alcohol to a minor and any number of charges, depending on the state, province or country in question.
Regardless of the state they ALL have laws which, although they may vary in wording and penalty, prohibit the knowing harboring of a runaway minor. A typical charge might be, "Contributing to the the Deinquency of a Minor." If the minor is being kept from their parent or guardian for reasons of engaging in sex with them, the penalty could (and probably will) be escalated to a felony offense.
7 years unless differd sentence or pay for lawyer to help expunge. However, there will be old documentation always out there that was created before expunge or 7 years that will be hard to shake, even after mip goes bye bye.

if I'm reading your question correctly, "what is the age of consent in Texas" means "at what age can a minor have sexual relations w/ another person (whither a minor or not is indifferent to the question, but important" and the secondary phrase "in Texas" is respecting Texas state law, as the law is different in each state. if I'm reading your question correctly, "what is the age of consent in Texas" means "at what age can a minor have sexual relations w/ another person (whither a minor or not is indifferent to the question, but important" and the secondary phrase "in Texas" is respecting Texas state law, as the law is different in each state.
You cannot drop charges. The state presses and/or drops criminal charges.
The age of consensual sex in Texas is 17. However, Texas follows the same legal guidelines as does ALL states, in reserving the right to apply other criminal statutes. Some of which can be, contributing to the deliquency of a minor, coercion or intimidation by a person in a position of authority, supplying alcohol to a minor, submitting a minor to pornography, and so forth. Therefore if the state is aggressive in pursuing such matters (and Texas usually is) any number of counts of criminal activity can be brought against the adult.
Depends on state but about 3 yrs
