State v. Carter

Dunbar, C. J.

(concurring). — I concur in the result for the reason stated by me in the case of Whitcher v. State, 2 Wash. 286 (26 Pac. 268), viz., that a girl under the age of sixteen years cannot be a subject of seduction, not being of a consenting age, and, therefore, if there was any crime committed it was rape. I also concur in the last point decided by Judge Scott, as I am opposed to any theatrical manifestations in the trial of a cause, especially in the trial of a criminal action.
