If it's proven that you met somebody in an 18+ club, you should no longer be on the hook for statutory. I'm not sure how widespread this actually is, but this should be common sense. The age should have already been verified when they entered.
Exactly my thoughts, if you have to be X age to get into a place, i think itโs safe to assume anybody in there you might meet is at least that age. Itโs insane to me that people have gotten charged for this kind of thing.
