HAGERSTOWN, MD–During a conversation at work last Friday, drill-press operator Pete Cromartie revealed a disturbing familiarity with various states’ age-of-consent laws. “I mentioned to Pete that I’d be visiting family in Pennsylvania over the weekend, and he says, ‘You oughta pick up some chicks there, ‘cause they only gotta be 16,’” coworker Geoff Richardson said. “Then he says, ‘South Carolina’s the best: 15.’ I mean, that’s seriously creepy.” Richardson said he later heard Cromartie talk about a bill pending in the Hawaii legislature that would lower the state’s age of consent to 13.
