In the video thats floating about the reporter asks "how will you cope, financially?" and the 13yr old kid replies "what's 'financially'?"
well im pretty sure we're both correct.
Statutory Rape is used when an individual (regardless of gender) has sexual relations with an individual not old enough to legally consent to the sexual act. Because they are of both underage and of similar age it cannot be classified as Statutory rape and will not be taken to court. If it were to, most probably it will play out the 15 year girl who should've known better exploited the 13 year old boy for sexual favours.
