Sexual Assault Laws in Tennessee

Tennessee defines sex crimes and the penalties for a conviction in the Official Code of Tennessee Annotated. These laws are as follows: 

  • Sexual Battery: The deliberate touching or groping of another person’s intimate areas without their consent. Successful conviction of sexual battery is punishable by up to five years in jail.
  • Aggravated Sexual Battery: The touching or groping of intimate parts and penetration with a foreign object without consent. A conviction for aggravated sexual battery is punishable by a sentence of 25 years in prison and/or life-long probation.
  • Rape: Intercourse between a man and woman without the victim’s consent. Successful conviction of rape is punishable by life in prison, life in prison without parole, a split sentence (prison and probation), or the death penalty.

The above crimes can sometimes be stacked in a sexual assault case to maximize the sentence.
