Sex Crimes

Sex crimes can be the most vigoursly prosecuted cases in Boston and throughtout Massachusetts. They are also the mostly widely publicized cases. Boston Criminal Attorney Patrick Donovan understands this and works to give each of his clients the best criminal defense in all sex cases.  

Some of the most common sex crimes include rape, sexual assault, child sexual abuse, statutory rape, indecent exposure, incest, date rape, sex with animals, sexual harassment, child pornography and pedophilia, and prostitution.

An important element to any sex crime is the established age of consent. In most jurisdictions, there is an established age in which a person is allowed to give consent to participate in sexual activities. If a person engages in sexual activity with another person below the established age of consent, they can face much harsher consequences.

If you are convicted of a sex crime, you may be required to register as a sex offender, which can have a life-long negative effect on your personal and professional reputation. Furthermore, if you are convicted of a sex crime you may face jail time, probation, monetary fines, community service and psychological evaluation, in addition to the already damaging toll being taken on your professional and personal life.
