What type of sex crimes are you accused of?
Sex crimes is actually a fairly broad category that can include a wide range of crimes, including:
- Sexual assault
- Sex trafficking
- Lewd conduct
- Rape
- Child pornography
- Sexual battery
- Indecent exposure
- Child molestation
Any conviction can result in life-changing consequences, including the necessity of registering as a sex offender – which can lead to your photo and name being public information. Not every sex crime falls under the provisions that require you to register as a sex offender, but a judge can always order you to register if you’re convicted of a crime and the judge believes it involved sexual compulsion or gratification.
Potential penalties for sex crime convictions
If the sex crime you’re accused of involved violence, then a conviction will come with harsh penalties that range from a few years in prison to decades spent. There may be even more sentencing enhancements if there was a gun involved in the crime – which could lead to life in prison.
A nonviolent sex crime may be charged as a misdemeanor, depending on the specifics of your case. For example, someone charged as an 18-year-old of statutory rape for a consensual sexual relationship with a 16-year-old would likely face a misdemeanor with a maximum sentence of a year in jail.
Your sex crimes attorney in Riverside CA can find the right defense
There are many defense options available to you, but the right one will depend on the evidence against you. In some cases we may argue that you didn’t commit the act at all, in others we may argue that it was a consensual encounter. You can count on Chambers Law Firm to thoroughly analyze all evidence against you, and in some cases we’ll hire our own investigator to support our defense.
