GRIFFIS, P.J., for the Court:
¶ 1. Kenneth Baker appeals his conviction for statutory rape under Mississippi Code Annotated section 97-3-65 (Supp. 2011). On appeal, he argues: (1) the indictment was fatally defective because it failed to allege an essential element of the crime charged, and (2) the trial court committed plain error by failing to instruct the jury on the essential elements of the crime. We find no error and affirm.
