Sex Crimes are among the most detested crimes. There is an immediate bias assigned to people charged with sex crimes, making reputation management vitally important. If falsely accused of a sexual offense, such as solicitation, prostitution, child pornography, sexual battery or other sex crimes, hiring a highly skilled defense attorney is a must.
With the rise of social media, public educators have become targets of sex crime accusations. The damage to a professional educator’s career is often severe as the stigma follows them throughout their life. One angry student who posts a 140 character accusation about a sexual encounter with their teacher is all it takes for the story to become national news. The media pick up teacher, and even law enforcement, stories faster than any other professional field.
Perhaps the most daunting fact about a sex crime conviction is the aftermath of registering as a sex offender. Registration includes a photograph, home address, and information about the crime. The sex offender registry is public information, accessible to anyone with a computer or smartphone. This is both humiliating and damaging to your privacy and future employment.
If you face sex crime charges, whether it is rape, sexual battery, or some other sexual offense, make your first call to a highly skilled defense attorney. When dealing with such serious charges that may have live-long implications, a defense attorney with experience inside and outside the courtroom is the best choice in avoiding a conviction and moving on with your life.
