Class 22: Rape Problem - Kansas Law

Prepare:

Do  the Kansas rape problem.  The victim and defendant statements  are the same, but now you will be working with Kansas statutes and cases that need to be analyzed in conjunction with the problem materials. 

Think about the following questions in conjunction with the problem:

What, if any, is the highest degree of offense the prosecution can likely charge and convict Rapier of? What impediments would you (as prosecutor) expect to encounter in so charging? What defenses would you (as defense attorney) raise? Who is likely to be successful, and why? Is there other information you need? If so, what is it and why? Are there strategic, policy or practical issues that you believe are important here? If so, what are they and why?
