In the US the age of consent differs by state, but is between 16 and 18 across the board. In some places however, civil and criminal laws within the same state conflict with each other (that's the real problem here.)
Want a list?
16: Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Vermont, Washington, West Virginia
17: Colorado, Illinois, Louisiana, Missouri, New Mexico, New York, Texas, Wyoming
18: Arizona, California, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, North Dakota, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Wisconsin
Let's see. The show takes place in Washington, where the age of consent is 16. Case closed.
