What is the law concerning age difference dating in teens from Maryland?
The age of consent in Maryland is 16. This is the age at which a man or woman may legally consent to heterosexual sex with someone over the age of 21. Maryland doesn't specify the age of consent for homosexual acts. The Maryland age of consent laws are complex. Like most states, Maryland does not have a single age of consent. Individuals as young as 14 years may consent to sex in Maryland, as long as the partner is no more than 4 years older. For example, a 14-year-old could legally have sex with her 16-year-old boyfriend in Maryland. However, she could not legally have sex with her boyfriend if he was 19 years old. These types of laws were introduced to protect young people from exploitation by mature adults. Different standards apply if one partner is in a position of authority over the other, such as a teacher, coach, supervisor or clergyperson. In these cases, the age of consent is often 18 years of age, and sometimes 21. There are also special provisions under the law for individuals who are mentally retarded or mentally ill, and therefore not legally able to give consent, regardless of age. There are severe penalties for violating the Maryland age of consent laws. It is a second-degree sexual offense to engage in a sexual act with any person under age 14, if the offender is at lest 4 years older. This crime carries a sentence of up to 20 years in state prison. Under the Maryland age of consent laws, third-degree sexual offense occurs when someone who is at least 21 years old engages in a sexual act, including intercourse, with someone aged 14 or 15. This crime carries a sentence of up to 10 years in state prison.
