OK, deep breath....
First and foremost, I am so sorry this happened to you. I hope you are doing OK.
- I believe you were abused (emotionally and sexually), tormented, terrorized and manipulated horribly
- In addition, you were a minor - and he was of legal age - when the incident happened. Another NOT ok. It is a little more complicated in the Commonwealth, but you were a minor at the time.
NOW...sharing what I know to be true on a Federal level / and in the courts regarding the (new) definition of rape as of 2011:
"Revised Rape Definition Approved
In December 2011, Director Mueller formally approved the recommendation of the Criminal Justice Information Services Division’s Advisory Policy Board (APB) Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Subcommittee to revise the definition of rape in the UCR Summary Reporting Program (SRP). Below is the revised rape definition: “Penetration, no matter how slight, of the vagina or **** with any body part or object, or oral penetration by a sex organ of another person, without the consent of the victim.”
I hope this helps bring some peace and clarity for you, my dear.
