Well this question doesn't raise any red flags...

Any where in the U.S. actually.

What can the law do to an 18 year old who is in the company of a 16 year old runaway?

The law can do a number of things because there are several issues involved. Depending on the state where you live the 16 year old could be below the age of consent which makes it illegal for the 18 year old to have a relationship with him/her. The 18 year old is an adult and because this person is a runaway they could be charged with helping a minor who is breaking the law by being a runaway. The best way to get out of this mess is to get the minor runaway back home and not aid him/her any further. The law really looks down on some one helping a person remain outside the law.

Only if the 17 year old has parental consent. Although the police can not take her into custody, and return her to her parents, they can prosecute the 20 year old with harboring a runaway. Once someone turns 17 they can have sex with a 99 year old if that is what they like.
