Woman admits sex with 15-year-old runaway

Amanda Major

ABACO – A woman has admitted the statutory rape of a runaway girl.

Amanda Rachel Major, 24, had sex with the 15-year-old girl in February 2021in Spring City, Abaco.

Major was 23 when the incident happened.

Major pleaded guilty to sexual intercourse with a minor of the same sex when she was arraigned before Magistrate Ancella Evans yesterday. The age of consent in same sex relationships is 18.

Major didn’t have the opportunity to choose the venue of her trial at her initial court appearance on March 30.

At that time, prosecutors intended to fast-track the matter to the Supreme Court for trial. As a result, she could not enter a plea.

Major has been remanded to prison until her sentencing in August 25.

The magistrate has requested a probation report to assist in her decision.
