Question
read a portion of the texas law that defines sexual assault and applies to minors. (b) a sexual assault under subsection (a)(1) is without the consent of the other person if: (1) the actor compels the other person to submit or participate by the use of physical force or violence; (2) the actor compels the other person to submit or participate by threatening to use force or violence against the other person, and the other person believes that the actor has the present ability to execute the threat; (3) the other person has not consented and the actor knows the other person is unconscious or physically unable to resist; (4) the actor knows that as a result of mental disease or defect the other person is at the time of the sexual assault incapable either of appraising the nature of the act or of resisting it; which sexual situation would result in a legal consequence according to the law? after the movie, tia gets mad at her boyfriend when he refuses to have sex. he drops her off at home and they don’t speak for a week. after dating only three weeks, rylee and renee have sexual relations. while at a party, lukas slips a pill into andi’s drink that puts her to sleep. he proceeds to have sex with her while she is unconscious. after having consensual sex with her boyfriend, lenna has regrets and threatens kyle with legal action.
According to the Texas law provided, sexual assault without consent includes situations where the actor takes advantage of the other person being unconscious (Subsection (b)(3)). In the case of Lukas slipping a pill into Andi's drink and having sex with her while she is unconscious, this clearly violates the law as Andi was unable to consent (due to being unconscious). The other scenarios either involve consent (Rylee and Renee's case - assuming mutual consent as there's no indication otherwise in the description, Lenna's case initially had consensual sex) or just a relationship conflict (Tia and her boyfriend's situation which is not a legal sexual assault situation as per the given law).
