Texto Original del Estatuto (Inglés)

odomy in violation of O.C.G.A. § 16-6-15(a) because the victim testified that the defendant offered to give the victim money for oral sex. Davenport v. State, 316 Ga. App. 234 , 729 S.E.2d 442 (2012). Evidence that the victim approached the defendant with an offer regarding oral sex on two occasions, following the defendant's earlier offer to pay the victim if the victim would allow the defendant to perform oral sex on the victim, and that the victim was 14 years old at the time the enticement occurred was sufficient to support the defendant's convictions for enticing a child for indecent purposes and solicitation of sodomy. Tezeno v. State, 343 Ga. App. 623 , 808 S.E.2d 64 (2017). Evidence insufficient for conviction. - Although the defendant clearly invited the 17-year-old boy to engage in sexual acts falling within the express language of the sodomy statute, O.C.G.A. § 16-6-5 , the evidence was insufficient to convict the defendant of solicitation of sodomy as the defendant never suggested that any encounter occur in a public place; the mere fact that the defendant was a public officer, specifically a police officer, did not render public the defendant's offer to engage in sex in a private residence; no money or anything of commercial value would be exchanged; the defendant's conduct did not rise to the level of intimidation or coercion that would give rise to a finding of sexual contact by force; and both parties were legally capable of consenting to sexual contact.
