Under Pennsylvania law, "a person who engages in penetration, however slight, of the genitals or anus of a complainant with a part of the person's body for any purpose other than good faith medical, hygienic or law enforcement procedures commits aggravated indecent assault if the person does so without the complainant's consent," or if the victim was forced, threatened, drugged, etc.. The law also applies if the victim consented, but was underage. Source: PENNSYLVANIA CONSOLIDATED STATUTES, CRIMES AND OFFENSES (TITLE 18), PART II. DEFINITION OF SPECIFIC OFFENSES. CHAPTER 31. SEXUAL OFFENSES Subsection 3125.
