The Consequences of a Sex Crime Conviction

Before considering a guilty plea to a sexual offense, be sure to understand whether this involves registration. In most cases, a conviction on a sexual offense will result in your registration as a Sex Offender. This makes your offense a matter of public record usually for the rest of your life. For this reason, we recommend aggressively fighting sexual offense charges and avoiding any plea bargain that involves sex offender registration.

Sexual Offender Registration

Sex crime registration is bad in and of itself, but under the current political climate it is getting worse. First of all, a sex registrant is required to register his or her name and address including all personal information, with local law enforcement.

This information to some degree can lawfully be posted on the internet. At a minimum, your name, face and even address can be posted on the internet for anyone to see. The effect of this is you become registered in the national sex offender registry and become a social outcast!

The nightmare doesn't end there. If you leave your residence for any extended period of time, either on vacation or even a business trip, you may be required to notify your local law enforcement office as well as the law enforcement office in your destination location.

To make matters even worse, certain states are currently introducing legislation which will restrict where you can live. For example sex registrants may not be able to live within a certain distance from a school, park, bus stop, church, or other places where children are known to gather. Think about it. Most communities are designed to include schools, churches and easy transport access. This pretty much eliminates most existing communities and virtually all new communities. You will be left with very few desirable places to live!

Additionally, some states have propositions requiring sex offenders to wear ankle bracelets.

The Bottom Line: A Life as an Outcast!

The bottom line is by pleading to any sex crime, your life as a free person is over. Furthermore, the Supreme Court has generally upheld and supported all of the challenges to sex offender registration requirements!

These laws aren't going away. In fact, they are getting worse.
