On your whole story, I'd say you were cutting the lines a tad close. But that's probably also a bit why she's into you. (Doesn't necessarily make what you did wise, but wisdom isn't what we're talking about here) Now, on the situation. - Get that Text message saved - You need to show that text message to several people you know; hopefully 1-2 you can trust but that aren't necessarily. - Take a few pictures of the text message, and save those pictures in a few spots. - Look up in the New York State laws the exact passages covering consent/age of consent - Make sure you also look up the rules for sexual contact that isn't intercourse (these are different and some states have VERY different rules; some states have rules that cover, effectively, "debauchery with a minor"). You need to have a very firm grasp of the laws in the area of law that the "father" just threatened you over. He made a possibly criminal threat against you, you have to be prepared if anything keeps going. - Figure out what company he works for, what division (it's likely nothing to do with criminal law, which means he's just talking out his ass). And have the contact information for his HR &/or compliance office. - Figure out how to file a complaint with the New York State Bar Association (the licensing body for NY attorneys) You basically *are* in the advantage if anything happens, but *only* if you are prepared. Getting an avalanche of hell coming your way suddenly is the fastest way to get screwed up worst. Most problems in the questionable situations are given to the passive party. That text from the "dad" is likely an ace in the hole defense. And the other information is useful because, if things escalate, you have to be prepared to strike back. You can make his life just as bad as yours. But you would *never* mention this to anyone. You just have to establish the time frame for the text and all parties involved. (I might suggest making Hotmail, Yahoo & Gmail accounts and send yourself screenshots of the pictures you take; it helps establish the time frame again. Oh, and get those screenshots of the chats with the girl. Logs of that is useful as well.) I do assume you ended up in the middle of a family dispute, but that isn't terribly important. Your job is to take care of yourself. You also have to be mindful of the possibility that your girlfriend is effectively just using you against her parents. What she told them might be different than what happened. But, to be clear on my personal opinion, keep it in your pants for a while. You're treading on dangerous ground. | ||

Ask him if he'll backtrace you. | ||
