SEX CRIMES

With so many different legal terms for sex crime, understanding which terms relate to less serious or more serious offenses can be confusing. The law broadly describes sex offenses to include minor crimes where there is no sexual contact, such as sexting or solicitation.

However, it can also refer to sexual contact that involves touching the genitals or intimate areas without the individuals consent. Sex offense also refers to when the individual is a minor and is therefore legally unable to consent or the individual is mentally incapacitated and is therefore also unable legally to consent. It can refer to violent sexual behavior, involving rape.

Being wrongfully accused of a sex crime can be a horrifying ordeal. Friends and family may abandon you, police may treat you poorly, and even the judge may harbor hostility toward you.

Those accused of sex crimes often have no idea how or why the accusation was made. Mistaken identity frequently leads to false accusations. Women sometimes lie about a sex crime to seek revenge on a current or former lover, or to gain notoriety or monetary wealth at your expense. Children also make accusations about sex crimes, but are often confused about what they mean and the implications. Investigators may also elicit false accusations from children by questioning them improperly or exploiting their feelings.
