The majority of courts hold that ignorance or even a bona fide belief that a minor is of legal age does not constitute a defense to prosecution of such strict liability offenses as

(a) voluntary sexual relations with a minor and

(b) sale of intoxicating liquor to a minor. Do you think a state should adopt a statute that would excuse such offenses where the defendant made an inquiry as to a person’s age and the person appeared to be of legal age?
