- W3123313746 abstract "This Article examines statutory rape cases of the last decade and submits that both the apparatus to police sexual violence against minors— statutory rape laws—as well as their application against consenting minors create legally untenable, absurd results that frequently impose legal and extralegal burdens on minors that may exceed that of adult, convicted rapists. No coherent framework has been offered by a politician that responds pragmatically to the empirical realities of adolescent sexuality. Neither federal nor state legislatures offer a coherent, well-articulated approach to militate against the harshest criminal punishments demanded by statutory rape provisions. Indeed, judges interpret and enforce statutory rape cases in a manner that entrenches stereotypes and biases. On the other hand, few scholars wrestle with the broader contemporary applications of statutory rape law despite recent decades of absurd results and disproportionately harsh penalties against teens. Several concerns frame this Article: (1) the advent of extralegal punishments imposed on minors convicted of fornicating with minors, such as mandatory sex offender registration requirements; (2) the strict liability enforcement approach to such cases, which leaves room only for technical assessments (Did sex occur or not?) rather than critical, nuanced evaluation (Did the minors consent? Was there maturity and capacity to consent? Would the punishment imposed by the legislature lead to an absurd result or unjust outcome?); (3) the muddling and conflation of teen consensual intimacy with rape; (4) the collective failure of legislative, prosecutorial, and judicial branches of government to take account of the robust empirical literature that provides a different account of teen sexuality norms; (5) the failure to account for perverse social outcomes; and (6) the production of disparate criminal law norms that relate to race, class, and gender, produced by judges and other legal actors, such as police and prosecutors. The Article offers two novel ways forward to address teen sex and statutory rape." @default.
