Idaho statutory rape laws define the age of consent as 18. Therefore, if you have sex with a person who is 17 years old or younger, you are committing the crime of statutory rape. Sexual activity is defined as penetration of the mouth, vagina or anus.

If you are 18 years old or older, and you have sex with a minor age 16 or younger, you will be charged with sexual abuse of a minor, according to Idaho statutory rape laws. This is a felony charge in Idaho, as it is in many other states. The punishment for sexual abuse of a minor is time in spent in jail. The sentence could be as long as 25 years.

Idaho statutory rape laws even go so far as to declare sexual contact with a minor a crime. If you engage in genital-to-genital contact with a person who is 16 years old or younger, you can be found guilty of a felony. This is called lewd conduct with a minor child, according to Idaho statutory rape laws. These charges can result in a jail term of many years, or even life in prison.

Most states do not specify the gender of the offender and the victim, but Idaho statutory rape laws specify the offender as a male and the victim as a female under this part of the state statutes.

On April 12, 2010, the Governor of Idaho signed a revised law reducing the age of consent from 18 to 16, provided the age difference between the two parties is no more than three years.
