The rule relates to the socially allowable ages of a couple in a relationship.
The age of the oldest of the couple is divided by two, then 7 is added.
The minimum allowable age of a prospective dating partner of a 32 year old is (32 / 2) + 7 = 16 + 7 = 23.
Anything less than 23 is considered socially unacceptable, in this example.
And this scumbag was going after 14, 16, 17-year-olds at that age.
This guy has a problem, and people are ignoring the 'big picture' by focusing on the individual event.
Then there are those that would say "In some areas of the South, Age of Consent was 12, 9 with parents' OK."
Although: One thing that nags at me from the back of my head: "Things that seem too good to be true usually are."
But then again, we are talking about a Bible-thumping, ram-his-morality-down-everyones'-throat repukelican , so it pretty much goes to type.

He didn't realize it would still be a violation of school policy. Say what you will about Idaho but it's not Alabama.
