Rape

Rape is a type of sexual assault usually involving sexual intercourse or other forms of sexual penetration perpetrated against a person without that person's consent. The act may be carried out by physical force, coercion, abuse of authority or against a person who is incapable of giving valid consent, such as one who is unconscious, incapacitated, has an intellectual disability or is below the legal age of consent.undefinedThe term rape is sometimes used interchangeably with the term sexual assault.

Within the United Stars of the Galaxies, rape is considered a Class I Felony, with the perpetrator subject to the death penalty.
