Cody Wilson, an Austin man whose fight over 3D-printed guns thrust him into the national spotlight, faces a charge of sexual assault, according to an arrest affidavit filed in Travis County district court on Wednesday. [More]
Without conceding that anything happened as described, absent from this is any information that he had reason to believe she was underage. This smells like a premeditated set-up to destroy the man and discredit supporters of his idea.
I have no idea what the SugarDaddyMeet website requires to open an account (and I'm not going to go there to find out), but I'd be surprised if they don't have some sort of requirement to state you are of age before allowing an account to be opened. [SEE UPDATE] It's also telling that he will now be ruthlessly attacked and Alinsky Rule 5-ridiculed by the same people out there calling you a hater if you don't embrace "Love is Love."
Naturally, the questions I'm most interested in aren't addressed in the "news" account: Did someone arrange for the girl to set Wilson up? Who? And what criminal liability would they share?
I'd also like to know who she is so her social media posts could be checked to determine affiliations. This business of destroying his reputation while protecting the identity and sympathies of the accuser trying to do it smacks of "progressive justice."

Bear goes where I dared not.
UPDATE:
Wilson missed a scheduled flight back to the United States and is thought to have left the country after a friend of the 16-year-old sexual assault victim told him that police were investigating him, Officer said.
That certainly makes things problematic for him. And
this makes things problematic for the "authorities":
There is no extradition treaty in force between Taiwan and the United States.
UPDATE:
Here's the affadavit.
