Rape of a Child

It is illegal to sexually penetrate a child who is more than 8 years old but less than 13 years old. This is a Class A felony punishable by 15-60 years in prison with a mandatory minimum sentence in Range II (a sentencing guideline range). The court cannot impose a sentence lower than Range II. Additionally, the board of parole may require satellite-based monitoring (GPS tracking) for the entire supervision period.
Penalty: Class A felony; 15-60 years; fine up to $50,000
Offense of Solicitation of a Minor
Original: SOLICITATION OF MINOR, DISPLAY SEX ACTS TO A MINOR >13 (Misdemeanor)
This offense makes it illegal for an adult (age 18 or older) to ask, request, or try to persuade a minor (under 18) through phone, text, email, or internet to engage in sexual acts like rape or sexual battery. A first conviction is punishable by up to 11 months and 29 days in jail and $2,500 in fines (Class A misdemeanor). If the victim is under 13, or if there are prior convictions, the charge increases to a Class E felony with 1-6 years in prison.
Penalty: Class A misdemeanor; 11 months 29 days; fine up to $2,500
Mitigated Statutory Rape
Original: SOLICITATION OF MINOR, STATUTORY RAPE (Misdemeanor)
This statute creates three age-based sexual offenses: mitigated statutory rape (victim 15-17, defendant 4-5 years older), statutory rape (victim 13-17, defendant 4-9 years older depending on victim's age), and aggravated statutory rape (victim 13-17, defendant 10+ years older). These crimes are charged based on the age difference between the defendant and minor victim rather than force or lack of consent, since minors cannot legally consent. All carry 1 to 6 years in prison and fines up to $3,000 for first-time offenses, with possible enhancement to Class D felony for repeat offenses.
Penalty: Class E felony; 1-6 years; fine up to $3,000
