Oklahoma Court: Not rape if the victim is intoxicated or unconscious?

According to CNN, in one Oklahoma court, if you are intoxicated or unconscious and are raped via oral sex, the defendant is found not guilty. This court dismissed a charge that a 17-year-old male that had forced a 16-year-old female to perform oral sex because she was drunk at the time that it happened. Apparently, their statute states "sexual intercourse involving vaginal or anal penetration." Once state Representative Scott Biggs, heard about the case, he took a stand. He commented, "I think the judges made a grave error, if they need more clarification, we are happy to give it to them by fixing the statute. Unfortunately, legal minds often get stuck on questions of semantics, when it is clear to most of us what the intent of the law is." He helped sponsor the bill that contains the statute and he stated his goal was to create "legislation to define forcible sodomy in a way that includes unconscious victims."
