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..
