Surely he was arrested on suspicion of 'abducting a minor'? You cant 'kidnap' anyone who goes with you willingly.

 

You're probably right, but a minor is not legally able to decide to go willingly.

Thats what he was arrested for in France, anyway. Maybe the British police will bring their own charges against him. As has been pointed out already, the statutory rape wouldnt apply in France either.

Course, she needs to admit to the police that a sexual relationship took place. Some local officer's have said that she's unlikely to admit to it in view of the consequences.

 

Time will tell I guess.

Do I detect a certain prejudice?

 

I make my judgements on the basis of previous observations. On that basis, no you don't detect any prejudice, just a reasonable assessment based on evidence.

Well let's call it pre-judgment. It can be a dangerous thing.
