Consequences Of A Sex Crime Conviction
It is important that you take accusations and charges of sexual assault, rape and other sex crimes seriously. Consequences of a conviction for sex offenses include:
- Possible lifetime imprisonment
- A criminal record that will follow you for the remainder of your life
- Being labeled as a felon
- Lifelong sex offender registration
- Facing social stigma and alienation from the community
Additionally, you will be subject to a litany of legal restrictions that define where you may live and work regardless of what county or state you live in. Texas law is extremely harsh on sex offenders, and you need to realize that your entire future is at stake and you may face exceptionally severe punishments.
