re: Monroe police are searching for a man suspected of rape / question about it

Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but it sounds like 1st degree rape applies to people over 65, under 13, OR if it happened to someone of any age where intercourse occurred under those circumstances listed.

First degree rape is a rape committed upon a person sixty-five years of age or older or where the anal, oral, or vaginal sexual intercourse is deemed to be without lawful consent of the victim because it is committed under any one or more of the following circumstances:

So if someone was in the window between age 13-65, and one of those circumstances listed did not happen, I guess it would be considered a lesser degree of rape (2nd degree, etc).
