Charges for a Sex Crime
"Sex crimes" include a variety of offenses that range from misdemeanors, like solicitation of prostitution, to first-degree felonies, like rape or sexual assault. If someone was killed during a rape or sexual assault, the charge becomes a capital crime, punishable by death. No matter how serious or how minor a crime you face, it is important to hire a skilled San Antonio sex crime attorney to defend you against these charges.
Most sex crimes can result in being labeled as a sex offender, a title you may be forced to carry around for the rest of your life. As a sex offender, your address will be accessible to anyone over the internet. You will need to register with the state on a regular basis. If you move, you must notify your neighbors of your sex offender status and re-register with the state. Your status as a sex offender will make it hard to find housing and employment. The best way to protect yourself from being labeled as a sex offender is to hire a top San Antonio criminal attorney.
