What is a sex crime? A sex crime would be any criminal act which involves unlawful actions of a sexual nature. Rape, sexual abuse or assault, solicitation, and pornography are all examples of sex crimes. There are many more. Sex with a person under the age of 18 is illegal, even though it may have been consensual. The unusual thing about a sex crime is that under many circumstances, no actual act of sex need occur for one to be charged with and convicted of a sex crime. An example of this would be internet sex crimes. The Law Offices of John R. Coniglio assist individuals facing state misdemeanor or felony charges for the following sex crimes:

  • Child molestation
  • Sex with a minor
  • Statutory rape
  • Child abuse or rape
  • Internet child pornography
  • Possession of child pornography
  • Lewd and lascivious conduct
  • Prostitution
  • Avoiding sex offender registration
  • Sexual battery
  • Sexual misconduct
  • Online solicitation
  • Drug-facilitated sexual assault
  • Using date rape drugs or ecstasy
  • Acquaintance rape
  • Forcible Rape
  • Lewd conduct
  • Probation violation

   Sex offender registration is for life. When facing sexual assault charges, not having a skilled lawyer could result in many years in jail and the stigma of the sexual predator label.
