What is the test for obtaining consent to commit aggravated lewd conduct against a minor?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Vasquez, B251618 (Cal. App. 2014):
3. Because the victim's consent is not a defense to the crime of aggravated lewd conduct committed by an adult on a child under the age of 14, independent proof that the lewd act was against the victim's will is unnecessary. (People v. Soto, supra, 51 Cal.4th at p. 248.)
