Intercourse with a child under 13 is a Class 2 felony under § 18.2-61, and intercourse with a child under 15 is a Class 4 felony under § 18.2-63, but intercourse with a minor under 18 is merely contributing to the delinquency of a minor, a class 1 misdemeanor, under § 18.2-371. “If this relationship was sexual a day before Justin’s birthday, then it qualifies as statutory rape.”
