The term "rape" conjures up terrible images. That single word makes it difficult for many people to take seriously the principle of "innocent until proven guilty."
Florida law uses the technical term "sexual battery," yet the connotation is the same. Criminal charges alleging any form of sexual conduct without the other person's consent — or with someone deemed unable to legally consent such as a minor — are among the most challenging. The media circus that often accompanies these cases only adds to the difficulty.
