Unwittingly had ‘sex’ with a child, realised it was a child, had ‘sex’ a second time.
And wrote a song about it. And then wrote it into his autobiography.
How this man apparently skated through the #MeToo movement unscathed is truly baffling.

Without the cooperation of the victim, there’s likely little law enforcement can do about this. If she doesn’t want him prosecuted, that’s likely that.
She’s 14. I don’t know about back then, but these days, she wouldn’t have much to say about it if there’s corroborating evidence.
BTW, what’s the statute of limitations on statutory rape?
Depends on the State.
To my understanding, that is only true for civil offenses, not criminal ones. Rape is a criminal offense pretty much everywhere, so cooperation of the victim isn’t necessary to prosecute, especially with a confession on a silver platter like that.
Then why hasn’t he been prosecuted? I can’t imagine any DA giving up such an easy win.
Going after celebrities is bad PR. That is literally why they don’t go after these kinds of cases, turns out political authorities are also just shitty people that only care about covering their own asses.
