What is Sexual Abuse?

Different states define sexual abuse in different ways. In Nebraska, the law defines sexual assault as sexual contact or penetration without the consent of the victim. It could mean that the victim was threatened or forced into sexual contact, pulled away from the offender or pushed the offender away, was deceived into giving consent, or simply said “no.”
