Wisconsin Sex Crimes

Rape

Since Wisconsin codified its criminal laws, the common law term "rape" has been replaced by the term "sexual assault". As was true for the crime of rape, a sexual assault can include sexual intercourse with an adult or a minor child. Beyond the terms provided in the common law crime of rape, a sexual assault includes any contact that is of a sexual nature.

Violent Rape

Under Wisconsin law, a sexual assault involving any form of violent act such as force or threat or use of a deadly weapon increases the charge from a sexual assault to a sexual assault with battery.

sexual assault of child is Felony Crime

Under Wisconsin law, sexual assault of a child under the age of 13 years is a felony offense.

Misdemeanor Crime

Sexual assault of a minor over the age provided by law (over 16 and under 18 years of age) is a misdemeanor offense unless the sexual assault involved any form of violence.

Date Rape

The sexual assault attorneys represent people accused of sexual assault involving the use of drugs such as GHB or Rophinol, and often referred to as date rape. Sexual assault of an unconscious victim is a felony offense.
