What Is Sexual Assault?
Sexual assault is a criminal offense that involves unwanted or forced sexual contact. Sexual assault charges can range from a misdemeanor to a felony, depending on the circumstances of the case. For example, sexual assault charges can be charged as a felony if a weapon was involved, serious bodily injury, or the victim was a minor.
Sexual assault can occur in various situations, including at the workplace, school, or home. It can occur between strangers or between people who know each other. The victim is often too intoxicated or scared to fight against the attacker. In other cases, the victim may be too young to understand what is happening or to give consent.
Is There a Statute of Limitations on Sexual Assault in California?
No. California Penal Code § 799(b)(1) states no statute of limitations for certain felony sexual assault crimes. This law means that prosecution can begin after the crime is committed.
