The Nuances of Non-Consensual Sex in a College Sexual Misconduct Case
Introduction: Non-consensual sex is a serious offense that is unfortunately all too common on college campuses. Spodek Law Group, led by Attorney Todd Spodek, understands the complexities of non-consensual sex in college sexual misconduct cases and is here to help protect your interests.
What is Non-Consensual Sex?
Non-consensual sex is simply sex without obtaining the other person’s consent. However, it is important to understand the nuances of this term. The non-consent part could be dictated by either a lack of consent due to incapacitation or a lack of consent because the accused party, the respondent, did not obtain consent either verbally or physically from the accusing party, the complainant.
Example: Let’s say that John and Jane are both college students who meet at a party. They both drink heavily, and Jane becomes incapacitated due to the amount of alcohol she consumed. John has sex with Jane without her consent, which is considered non-consensual sex because Jane was unable to give her consent due to her incapacitation.
Why is Non-Consensual Sex Such a Serious Offense?
Non-consensual sex is a serious offense because it violates a person’s fundamental right to bodily autonomy. When someone engages in non-consensual sex, they are committing an act of violence against another person. The emotional and psychological trauma that the victim experiences can be devastating, and the accused party can face severe legal and social consequences.
