Date rape is a very common, and often times unreported, type of sex offense in the state of Maryland. Date rape is also known as acquaintance rape. With the advent of the Internet and social media sites and dating sites the definition of date rape has changed. Date rape used to be a scenario involving someone you knew and had spent time with prior to the assault. Now, date rape can involve being assaulted by a complete stranger where the encounter was arranged online. Regardless of the scenario, being accused of date rape is an extremely serious offense. If you have been accused of date rape, or any sex offense in the Baltimore-Annapolis area, please call a skilled and experienced defense attorney.
