Syllabus

Delinquency adjudication rape sufficiency of the evidence manifest weight of the evidence. Appellant's delinquency adjudications for rape and disseminating matter harmful to juveniles are supported by sufficient evidence and are not against the manifest weight of the evidence. The record contains evidence that the appellant forced the victim to engage in fellatio. Further, the court did not clearly lose its way in adjudicating the appellant delinquent despite the fact that the victim did not report the rape for two years. Furthermore, the fact that no physical evidence was introduced does not make the adjudications against the manifest weight of the evidence because there is no requirement that physical evidence be presented.
