What is Date Rape?
Date rape is a form of forced or nonconsensual sexual intercourse which occurs between two people who know each other. They may be friends, acquaintances, dating or in a relationship. Date rape crimes are often associated with alcohol because of the social aspect to the initial relationship. Drugs are also associated with date rape, as past cases have involved offenders who used mind-altering drugs to overpower the victims and also make them forget the encounter.
Following are some penalties which may be associated with a Solano County date rape conviction:
- Up to 8 years in state prison
- Sex offender registration
- Probation
- Fines
- Felony conviction on criminal record
- Loss of right to own a firearm
