Question What Evidence Do I Need for Statutory Rape? - July 24th 2013, 06:42 PM

I was fourteen and he was sixteen. It lasted until I was fifteen and he was eighteen.

What evidence do I need to prove this in court?
Do witnesses need to have actually saw the act or know that it is happening?

If there were any witnesses, a confession from the person doing and any physical proof.

If I can get text messages from the phone company, there is practically a confession from him.

There are many people that know we had sex.

Is that all I need? I don't have DNA proof.

As far as I know that would be all, if you're going to pursue pressing charges against him (which I would definitely do) maybe talk to the police about it or a doctor, and see what you'll need for it. Wish I could be more help I hope this works out for you!

I am not 100% sure what you would need to press charges against him but if you went to the police and told them your story and presented them with all the evidence you had I am sure they would accept it. Also, if you were to ask them what type of evidence they would need to pursue this I am sure they would be able to tell you.
