Houston Sex Crime Attorney
Implications of Sex Crime Charges
If you have been charged with a sex crime the stakes are high. Society views the allegations unlike any other charges. Law enforcement officers, prosecuting attorneys, and judges all take a strict approach when dealing with individuals accused of a sex crime. No matter what the nature of the allegations, a sex crime conviction in Texas will usually result in mandatory registration as a sex offender. This can make it almost impossible to lead a normal life.
As a registered sex offender, you may find it increasingly difficult to find a good job as most employers require a background check. Jobs that involve interacting closely with children or minors will be specifically off limits once an individual is convicted of a sex crime. Beyond the professional ramifications, this could be something that radiates throughout your entire life. Colleagues and friends that you once considered close might avoid you and you could struggle to maintain relationships. For this reason, following an accusation of this nature it is vastly important that no time is wasted in securing the legal representation of a knowledgeable Houston criminal defense lawyer. Some common sex crime offenses that you could be facing include:
- Indecent exposure
- Indecency with a child (under the age of 17)
- Aggravated sexual assault of a child
- Improper relationship between educator and student
- Lewd acts in a public place
- Peeking
- Sexual battery
- Sexual abuse
- Prostitution, loitering, or solicitation
- Sexual performance by a child
- Child pornography related offenses
- Statutory, date, spousal, or forcible rape
- Molestation
- Sexual assault
