Sex Crimes
When a person participates in a sex act that is illegal, he/she can be charged with committing a sex crime. In Massachusetts, all sex crimes are taken very seriously and are also subject to vigorous investigations by law enforcement. Any person that is accused of committing a sex crime faces aggressive prosecution by state district attorneys. Even if the person that is accused is innocent, he/she will face negative stereotyping and stressful day-to-day interactions with friends, family, neighbors, and peers.
Frequently Committed Sex Crimes
Frequently committed sex crimes include, but are not limited to: rape, statutory rape, date rape, child molestation, lewd conduct, indecent exposure, prostitution, pandering, solicitation, possessions of child pornography, possession of child pornography, sexual harassment, crimes against a child, sexual abuse, and sexual assault.
Sex Crime Penalties
A sex conviction can lead to a vast array of legal penalties, which may include, but are not limited to: jail time, hefty fines, community service, probation, court ordered counseling and restitution. Additionally, any person that is convicted of a sex crime may have to permanently list his/her name on the state’s sex offender registry, which is viewable by the public. Criminal charges and sentencing for most sex crimes can be enhanced if the defendant has a prior criminal record, has a prior sex crime conviction, or if the victim was a minor.
