How many people do you know that got married at 13 or 14-years-old?
Elvis?
"Statistics released by the Pew Research Center show that nearly 5 in every 1,000 15–17 year olds in the United States are married"
Married....means they have been married. Who knows exactly when?
A study of 200K marriages in the USA:
"Overall there were 51 cases of 13-year-olds getting married, and 6 cases of 12-year-olds getting married"
Take that over the total number of marraiges in, say, the last generation....and you are talking thousands.
It is considered to be more prevalent in rural and poverty stricken areas.
"In 2013, the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act mandated that the US Secretary of State must "establish and implement a multi-year, multi-sectoral strategy to end child marriage""
Anyway, this is not really the issue here. What is part of this issue is this:
"138 House Republicans voted against the version of the act that became law."
"All Democrats voting joined by 33 Republicans voted for passage"

Actually I had a very good friend who married a 13 year old when he was 28. She proclaims that he saved her life. This was in rural Alabama. Turned out good for him when he got old. She was an RN and was running a hospital when he turned 75. Interesting lady. Had her first kid in the back of A VW bug while caught in a traffic jam on an LA freeway.
My father was 26 when he married my 17 year old mother. I would note however she was a sophomore in college at that point.
My 9 3/4 yo is over today and she if FAR from anything resembling an adult or even a teen in any way.....
In any case, this is off-subject. The Epstein thing - as far as we know now - is mostly 13-18+
We'll see what the search of the Mansion and phone records, etc. come up with.
It's already in the news that they found thousands of pics of girls that appear to be underage (i. e. child pornography). That's enough right there to put him away for years.
Donald Trump made his 13 yr old rape victim wear a blonde wig multiple times & said she looked a lot like his daughter who was also 13. Here's a link to the interview where the victim details what happened leading up to & including the assault. The video is located here:
New Jeffrey Epstein Accuser Says He Raped Her When She Was A Teenager
Another woman stepped forward Wednesday with allegations against accused sex predator Jeffrey Epstein, saying the billionaire financier raped her when she was 15 after his associates “recruited” her with the promise of career help.
“I just thought, it’s my fault,” Jennifer Araoz said Wednesday on NBC’s “Today” show. “Like, I was, like, obligated. Like, that’s just what we were supposed to do.”
