Child rape is a term that formerly meant to forcibly penetrate a child sexually, but whose use has seen been broadened to include any illicit sexual activity with a child. An example was when former Army major Daniel Woolverton was sentenced to 27 years in prison for raping a three-month-old baby. A human-stupidity.com article noted that "indecent touching of a minor is 'rape'. It is absolutely impossible for us to know what kind of activities Daniel Woolverton engaged in. Our language lost its precision and its power. The new 'rape' definition serves purely to mislead the public as to the nature of the crime. To incite the mob. Isn't the truth enough? Most likely he did indecent touching and fumbling with an infant. Yes fumbling in places and ways he should not fumble. But it seems he did not engage in activities that would permanently hurt, mutilate and hospitalize the child."[1]
