Statutory rape usually is a strict liability offense.
In other words, you don't get defenses. They don't have to prove you had the guilty mindset to convict you. And you don't get out of it by saying someone lied to you, had a fake ID, etc.

Statutory Rape means that both the minor and the adult agreed to have sex with each other without being forced, threatened with a weapon, or threatened in other ways. Someone having a fake ID or having a gun pointed to their head is going to be hard to prove without witnesses. If it can't be proved that the minor had a fake ID or that you were threatened in some way, you will go to prison for Statutory Rape. You will have to register as a sex offender after you are released and it will be hard for you to get a job anywhere. It might be hard for you to do other things too like rent an apartment (you couldn't live where I live if you had that criminal record) so make sure you know the person well before having sex with them. All of this may or may not be true, it depends where you live.

You seem to think their is a defence to rape, their isn't, you should ask your mother, grandmother, sister etc. I am sure they will be able to explain it to you, if they have not already done so.
