Nebraska Man Charged with Having Sex with Wife

On MSNBC:

LINCOLN, Neb. - A 22-year-old man faces criminal charges in Nebraska for having sex with an underage 13-year-old girl, although he legally married her in Kansas after she became pregnant.

The man’s lawyer said the couple, with their families’ support, “made a responsible decision to try to cope with the problem.”

Matthew Koso, 22, was charged Monday with first-degree sexual assault, punishable by up to 50 years in prison. He was released on $7,500 bail pending an Aug. 17 preliminary hearing.

I dunno. It sounds like he crossed state lines to marry this kid and avoid prison. Anyway, sex between a 22-year-old and a 13-year-old is a no-brainer. Lock him up.
