Highlight
The crime of gross sexual imposition with a child under the age of fifteen is a strict liability offense.
Statutes carry a strong presumption of constitutionality. A statute is not unconstitutionally vague if the challenged language, when measured by common understanding and practice, gives adequate warning of the prohibited conduct and marks distinct boundaries for fair administration of the law.
