Kansas laws have several different types of crimes that are considered sexual assault. In Johnson County, Kansas and across the state, where unwanted sexual contact exists there is a place for criminal action. This can include:
  • kissing
  • fondling
  • sexual touch, etc.
This does not require intercourse, and falls under sexual battery or sodomy. 

Kansas law qualifies rape as non-consensual intercourse. 

Many believe sexual assault is where there is no relationship between the parties (i.e. strangers); however, you must remain aware that you can be, any of the following, and be charged with sexual assault:
  • boyfriend/girlfriend
  • husband/wife
  • dating
  • relatives
  • acquaintances
  • friends
  • co-workers, etc.
Kansas Sexual Assault Defenses
These are difficult charges to overcome and will take an emotional toll on you. There are defenses to these accusations, such as:
