23-year-old Selvin Adelso Pop-Mac was taken into custody for statutory rape on April 23rd. Officers were called to the Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital, where they were advised that a 15-year-old mother arrived with her boyfriend/ father of her child, Pop-Mac, regarding a medical issue with their nearly 2-year-old child. Upon arrival, officers spoke to the 15-year-old, who stated she lied to Pop-Mac when they first met, telling him she was 19. She added that he later discovered her age, and they had been living together for the last five months. She said that they have had sex more than “that one time.” When officers talked to Pop-Mac, he corroborated the juvenile’s statements, advising that since they had been living together, he had been aware of her age and admitted to having sex with her. He was then taken into custody.
