In Minnesota, federal sex crimes laws define for rape more expansively than the state and may include charges for:

• Forceable Sex by a Federal Officer – There are certain types of people who should never push the limit. Federal officers have the power of the U.S. government behind them and can do significant harm by overstepping the boundaries. Engaging in sexual activity cannot love or advance these individuals because this would be sexual misconduct — and may be brought up as rape.
• Inmate Sexual Abuse by Prison Employees – Men and women who retire from the military, police force, or local government as law enforcement officers are often eligible for an early retirement. This can sometimes lead to employment opportunities in the prison sector for these officials. Regardless of a person’s location, it is essential to be on guard to not initiate sexual activity or any kind of sexual misconduct with the detainee.
• Inmate Sexual Abuse by Another – Private detention facilities are found all over the country. Sometimes these sites are used for those who do not have a serious criminal history — such as immigrants without criminal records. In these instances, these detainees enter the legal system as definite contributors through no fault of their own. And when they end up being sexually harassed and/ or threatened by other inmates or officials, it is hard to protect oneself. It is essential that a detainee who is being sexually abused contacts us.
• Rape and Sexual Abuse in the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines – Sexual abuse is dangerous enough on its own, regardless of location. Some places can be even more hazardous than others. Military personnel are particularly exposed to various risks in locations across the world. While being stationed in a war zone, these individuals face risks that most of us civilians will never imagine—not only physical injury, but also sexual misconduct. 
• It is always horrible anytime someone falls victim to this, but when someone in the military is a victim of sexual abuse, the crime is even more severe, with the full weight of the American government behind the case. Victims of sexual abuse in the armed forces deserve to be compensated for what has happened to them, but it will also hold individuals accountable for their actions.

In almost all cases, federal charges related to rape cases occur when the sexual abuse takes place on interstate transportation property (like an airliner, or a bus) or is somehow involved when the > person in charge is a federal employee

How Brockton D. Hunter, P.A. Defends Rape Cases
