Lawyers know that a child molestation charge is emotionally devastating against a person. The mere accusation of this crime can seriously damage your reputation, career and relationships.
Child Molestation, also known as Sexual Abuse, Sexual Assault on Child and Indecency with a child, generally involves any type of sexual contact with a child under the age of 14 (this age varies from state to state). Lawyers know that an adult can also be accused of sexual assault on minor in all states, which is usually defined as sex with a person under the age of 18. Both child molestation and sexual assault on child or minor can also be synonymous to Statutory Rape, which is generally defineds as sexual intercourse with minors or children. Here is a state by state comparison of age of consent, Statutory Rape offenses.
Unfortunately, children are vulnerable and can be easily manipulated by predators who use various tactics to lure them into sexual activity.
WHAT COUNTS AS CHILD MOLESTATION WITH A MINOR?
If convicted, you can face a lifetime sex offender registration and severe fines and penalties. A child molesation, sexual abuse, indecent liberties, sexual assault, or statutory rape conviction can plague you for the rest of your life, and you can be found guilty even when the only evidence is the victim’s word.
Child molestation trials are especially difficult because there is a strong inclination among judges, juries and peers to believe children and minors. However, children are highly impressionable and can be easily manipulated by prosecutors and family members. Children have been known to make outlandish statements, and it can be difficult to differentiate induced testimony from reality when not represented by top attorneys.
To make matters worse, you can be convicted of child molestation without the child’s testimony in some cases. A casual comment made by a child or minor in school can lead to the school officials being legally required to report you as a potential child molester. Early and aggressive representation by a defense lawyer with proven track record in child molestation defense can turn the tide in your direction and sometimes avoid a very painful and expensive trial.
It is important to have a skilled and experienced child criminal defense attorney by your side to fight for your child’s rights and protect their future. One law firm that specializes in defending children accused of crimes is LibertyBell Law Group.
