Rape is the act of forcing sexual acts on someone without having consent.
It may take place anywhere- in an dark alley, in a house, in a car-.

people commit this crime. It is a felony offense, which means it is among the most serious crimes.

Rape occurs in several different forms. For example, sexual intercourse and oral sex are.
two prime types. Rape includes penetration in the vagina, anus, or mouth. Drugs can be used to.
