When Sexual Assault or Rape Is Aggravated

Aggravated sexual assault or aggravated rape is a more serious form of the crime of rape or sexual assault, because the circumstances or the injury are considered “aggravated” or more serious than the circumstances or injury involved in other rapes or sexual assault. Some states have degrees of sexual assault or sexual penetration with first degree being the most serious form of the crime and the equivalent of aggravated sexual assault in other states.
The circumstances that distinguish aggravated sexual assault from non-aggravated vary from state to state. The following are commonly listed as circumstances that elevate the crime of sexual assault or attempted sexual assault to an aggravated offense:

  • the assailant uses, displays or threatens the victim with a deadly weapon during the offense
  • the offender causes serious or severe physical injury or permanently disfigures or disables the victim
  • the assailant acts with extreme indifference to human life during the commission of the assault
  • the offender attempts to kill the victim or another person during the commission of the assault
  • the assailant is aided by or commits the assault with one or more other person
  • the offender uses a rape drug to incapacitate the victim
  • the victim is physically helpless or temporarily or permanently unable to give consent because the victim is under the influence of alcohol or drugs, mentally incapacitated, elderly, or otherwise disabled or vulnerable
  • the assault involves incest or is committed by a step-parent or guardian
  • the offender has supervisory, disciplinary, or other power over the victim because of his legal, professional, or occupational status, and
  • the assault is committed during the commission or attempted commission of another felony such as kidnapping, robbery, homicide, aggravated assault, burglary, arson, or escape from jail or prison
If they are convicted they will probably never see the outside of a prison again.

Really sucks. My admiration for him as a player has never wavered, but my opinion of him as a person took a nose dive.

Why? Innocent men are indicted all the time. That's not to say that he is innocent or guilty but what did you expect them to throw the case out? They have a accuser and DNA evidence so it was always going to go to trial. Now we'll see whether the defense can prove this was consensual or not.

Fair enough, but they have been reviewing this case for several months and were able to get an indictment. Maybe the justice system will prove me wrong , but I feel like there's a better chance that he did it than didn't.
