An Absolutely Ridiculous Situation

Get ready to read.
In September, I moved into a 3 bedroom condo with my best friend and another close friend. I will call the best friend Charles and the other roommate Joey. We were getting along perfectly until about November when Joey gets this new girlfriend and she starts hanging around all the time. Charles and I don't mind this at all because we have a million things to do every day. About a month later, Joey and his girlfriend break up for unknown reasons. Fast forward to the beginning of this year and Joey is dating this girl again.
One day at work, I get an IM from Joey saying "hey, girlfriend is moving in with us." This was a statement, not a question, so I was naturally pissed that he thought someone else could just move in and use up all our utility money. So I get home, I tell him how pissed I am about it, the three of us talk it out and decide she can stay if she covers 1/4 of the rent and utilities. Ground rules are set; pay rent on time, don't go into rooms that aren't yours to go into, don't eat other people's food, boo boo bee boo.
Things are worked out and working well until about a week and a half ago, mostly because I'm home to sleep and that's about it. One day, I'm at work and Charles messages me and tells me there's some serious shit going on, so when I'm off work, I go home to talk to him. This is where things get really bad.
Now, the age of consent in Florida, where I live, is 18+, or ages 16 to 24. Joey is 26. His girlfriend is 16 YEARS OLD. AND LIVING IN MY HOME. On top of this, she cheated on him 3 times, which doesn't matter to me so much since it's his fault for staying with him. I'm working on certificates so I can go work for the government, and if there's anything on my record about my 26 year old roommate fucking a 16 year old and me knowing about it, I'm screwed right?
On top of my roommate's pedophilia, him and his girlfriend keep eating all of our damn food, making excessive noise until 4 or 5am and are generally just pains in my ass.
My question is this: move out or report him for his class 2 felony and get him kicked out? There aren't really many other options than these two that I can see at the moment, but feel free to chime in.
TL;DR: 26 year old roommate banging 16 year old, putting my record in danger, eats all of our food, pain in the ass. Move out or report?

Kick her out. If she won't leave, call the cops and have her kicked out.
This.
Also, you're not going to lose your chance at a government issued security clearance or a chance to do government work because your roommate is fucking a 16 year old. On the crazy chance she pressed some kind of charges and he got arrested, the details of her living there would not be in the report that they would find. All they would see is that one of your contacts was arrested, they might ask you about it, in which case you tell them he was seeing a girl in secret, and most likely they wont.
Unless you're applying to the CIA at 26, they're not going to background check your friends.
seems like he'd be trouble
I guess I can't really say, but I wouldn't live with someone who just said 'hey, my underage GF is coming to live with us.'

Tell him that. He's going to be a douche about it no matter what, so you might as well be up front and tell him that the girlfriend has to leave and he needs to stop seeing her because it is illegal, and he could get labeled as a sex offender for the rest of his life. His entire life.
How does Charles feel about this? If you and him are on the same page, then ...majority rules, you and Charles either kick his gf out or both of them out.
What is the leasing situation? Who is and isn't on the lease? Is utility combined with your rent or do you separately pay them? If so, who's name are they under?
