The issue focused largely on incidents involving survivors who suffered trauma during rape or incest. Victims reported knowing police officers raped them when they were minors and experiencing societal ostracization from male perpetrators. Victim Advocacy Clinic sponsored legislation allowing prosecutors to prosecute rapists under Minnesota law for statutory rape if convicted of criminal offenses committed within five years after their rapes occurred. Jurors sentenced rapist offenders under federal sentencing guidelines based on judicial rulings against defendants convicted in courts nationwide. Lawyers prosecuted juvenile rapists convicted in courts nationwide by prosecuting juveniles convicted in courts statewide
