Sex Crimes in California

In California, a sex crime includes the following offenses:

  • Lewd act with a child / molestation of a child 14 years or older (often in kidnapping cases)
  • Incest (sexual activity with a blood relative or family member)
  • Rape (forcible rape, marital rape, etc)
  • Statutory rape (consensual sexual intercourse with child under the age of 18)
  • Sexual battery (forcible sexual activity, other than intercourse)
  • Possession of obscene or pornographic matter
  • Possession of child pornography (often in internet sex crimes cases)
  • Indecent exposure in a private or public location
  • Lewd act in a public place
  • Sex with animals
  • Solicitation of prostitution
  • Human trafficking (forcing another into sex acts or slavery for money)

Sex crimes face harsh prosecution in California. A person accused of a sex crime is seen as a great risk to his or her community by both law enforcement and the prosecution.  A sex crime conviction will result in very harsh penalties such as incarceration, severe fines, probation, parole, restitution and rehabilitation and/or counseling.  As a sex crime offender you must provide the state with your whereabouts when registering as a sex offender, not just in your state, but nationally as well.  You will also have to list your felony sex crime conviction when applying for employment and you will most likely be ordered to stay away from parks, playgrounds, schools and anywhere else that children may be present (if convicted of a sex crime against a child.) We recommend that you consult a criminal defense lawyer at the law offices of James E. Blatt immediately to begin the necessary steps in protecting your future.
