Clarifies that voluntary incapacitation by alleged victim of sexual assault does not bar prosecution of defendant.

Summary

The bill makes clear that if a victim voluntarily becomes incapacitated—through alcohol, drugs, or other means—it will not prevent the state from charging an alleged sexual assault perpetrator. It applies to all criminal sexual assault cases in New Jersey and seeks to ensure that offenders can still be prosecuted regardless of the victim’s self‑induced condition.
