(2009). However, a conviction for first-degree sexual offense under N.C.G.S. § 14- 27.4(a) requires that the victim be only under the age of 13. N.C.G.S. § 14-27.4(a)(l). Moreover, a conviction for taking indecent liberties with children, in violation of § 14-202.1, requires only that the victim be under the age of 16. N.C.G.S. § 14-202.1 (2009). As we must give effect to the plain meaning of a statute, when the language is clear and without ambiguity, we must conclude that a conviction for first-degree sexual offense, in violation of § 14-27.4(a)(l), and a conviction for taking indecent liberties with a minor, in violation of § 14- 202.1, are not aggravated offenses as defined by § 14-208.6(la).
