From what I'm hearing as news begins to trickle out, the alleged victim was a runaway from Bronx, New York that was "working" as a teenage prostitute.
The Journal News reports the alleged victim was a 15-year-old girl and that she was reportedly beaten during the attack.
Reportedly, the charge will be third-degree rape. Under N.Y. state law, third-degree rape is classified as a person over the age of 21 that engages in a sexual act with another person under the age of 17. NYS labels 17 as the age of consent. Third-degree rape is a Class E felony under NYS law, or the least severe felony in the state.
