Yes, if the 17yo has reached age of consent in his/her state they can have sex. Otherwise maybe, if there is a close in age exception in that state. If not, they can not have sex.

The legality of a 17-year-old sleeping with a 20-year-old varies by jurisdiction. In some places, there may be close-in-age exemptions that allow for consensual relationships between minors and those slightly older. However, it's essential to familiarize oneself with the laws in the specific location to ensure compliance.
