Sexual Assault is often defined as sexual contact that involves an un-consenting party.  The definition of un-consenting parties may include a person's inability to consent due to intoxication or physically/mentally incapacity.  A person's occupation may put them at particular risk for a sexual assault accusation.  Doctors and teachers are at particular risk for sexual assault cases.  There are varying degrees of sexual assault that are usually dictated by state.  Statutory rape is considered a lesser degree sexual assault while non consensual sexual penetration constitutes a more serious form. Sentences for individuals convicted of sexual assault range from probation to lengthy prison time. Sexual Assault accusations are very serious no matter how inaccurate the accusation may be.
