ALASKA: SEXUAL ASSAULT INFORMATION, RESOURCES & SUPPORT

ALASKA SEXUAL ASSAULT LAWS

AGE of CONSENT / STATUTORY RAPE / SEX CRIMES AGAINST MINORS

SEXUAL ASSAULT

RAPE DURING MARRIAGE

In a prosecution under AS 11.41.410 or 11.41.420, it is NOT a defense that the victim was, at the time of the alleged offense, the legal spouse of the defendant. However, one party must have filed with the court for a separation, divorce, or dissolution of the marriage. See Sec.11.41.432.

INCEST

Under Sec. 11.41.450, a person commits the crime of incest if, being 18 years of age or older, that person engages in sexual penetration with another who is related, either legitimately or illegitimately, as:
  • an ancestor or descendant of the whole or half blood;
  • a brother or sister of the whole or half blood; or
  • an uncle, aunt, nephew, or niece by blood.
Incest is a class C felony.

CRIMINAL STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS

Under Alaska Statutes §12.10.010 prosecution may commence up to 10 years after the commission of the offense.

CIVIL STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS

Alaska does not impose a statute of limitations for felony sexual abuse. Under Sec. 09.10.065, a person may bring an action at any time for:
  • felony sexual abuse of a minor; or
  • felony sexual assault; or
  • unlawful exploitation of a minor
First, second and third degree sexual assault or child abuse are classified as felonies.
