A quick definition of statutory extortion:

Statutory extortion is when someone illegally obtains something or forces someone to do something through illegal means, like using force or threats. This can also refer to a public official who collects an unlawful fee under the guise of their position. It is similar to bribery, but the difference is that in bribery, the person offering the bribe takes the initiative, while in extortion, the person in power makes an unlawful demand. It is a serious crime that can result in legal consequences.

A more thorough explanation:

Statutory extortion is a type of extortion where someone uses illegal means, such as force or coercion, to obtain something or compel someone to do something. This can include public officials illegally obtaining property or collecting unlawful fees under the guise of their position.

For example, if a police officer demands money from someone in exchange for not giving them a ticket, that would be considered statutory extortion. Another example would be a government official demanding a bribe in exchange for awarding a contract to a particular company.

These examples illustrate how someone in a position of power can abuse their authority to obtain something through illegal means. It is important to recognize and report instances of statutory extortion to prevent further abuse of power and protect individuals from harm.
