Re: date rape
Your question cannot be answered with the limited information provided.
Michigan calls the conduct "criminal sexual conduct", and it is split into 4 "degrees" depending on the case facts. One fact/issue may be if the victim was intoxicated or "incapacitated", which would probably require proof that the person was so-called "passed out drunk" or intoxicated to the point that hse/he could not defend her/himself or make a rational choice to consent to the conduct being inflicted on her/his body. But from your limited information, the amount of alcohol involved and the extent of intoxication cannot be determined.
You should re-submit your answer with more details.
Re: date rape
Unwanted pregnancy, child care payments for 18 years (or abortion), various STD's, HIV, life in prison, mandatory sex registration and subsequent lifetime unemployment, elimination of any career or education opportunities including military service, social ostracism, and, if you raped her in your car, loss of your driver's license. That enough? Make sure you get a lawyer.
