Brett Parson was a DC Police Lieutenant and a supervisor of the department's LGBT Liason Unit. He was arrested outside of his parent's house in Boca Raton on February 12th for unlawful sex with a minor. Parson allegedly had sex with a 16 year old boy from Coconut Creek whom he met on the hookup app Growlr. D.C. gay activist Rick Rosendall said Parson’s arrest raises the issue of teenage sexuality that the prevailing political and social climate does not appear ready to address. Rosendall said, “A 16-year-old cruising on Growlr may be a poor choice for a sexual partner, but he is not a victim. Our society continues to have the most absurdly counterproductive attitudes regarding teenage sexuality, as if it could be wished away. The result of this denialism is teen pregnancies and STDs.” 16 states and DC list the age of 16 as the age of consent, although consent is generally restricted at that age to partners under 23 years of age.
