Types of Sex Offenses in Virginia

What are the Penalties for Sex Crimes?

Sexual offenses may not involve physical violence, such as child pornography, solicitation of a minor, or even indecent exposure on school grounds. By contrast, violent sexual offenses involve physical violence, such as rape, sexual battery, and forcible sodomy.

While some sex crimes are misdemeanors, many of them – including all violent sexual offenses – are considered felonies. Not only is a conviction punishable by harsh criminal penalties like prison time, fines, and even registration as a sex offender for potentially the rest of your life, but even merely being accused without ever being charged to going to court can make you appear guilty to the public and media.

The sex offender registry is online database that has your name, age, distinguishing characteristics and details about the crime that you were convicted of. This can have a huge impact on finding a place to work and live. That is why you need to contact an experienced sex crime attorney from Protogyrou Law.
