In Sexual Abuse in the First Degree (NY PL 130.65), the charge alleges that you engaged in sexual contact through the use of force, where the other person was physically helpless and unable to consent, where the other person was less than 11 years old, or where the other person was under 13 years of age and you are over 21.
