Accused of a sex crime? That’s tough. Sex crimes are, perhaps, the toughest crime to be accused of.
When it comes to sex crimes, you need the absolute best criminal defense attorney you can find. It doesn’t matter if you did it or not, because the deck is already stacked against you. Why is that? Because…
The police automatically think you’re guilty: When the police arrest someone, they stop looking for anyone else. When they think they’ve got their criminal…you…they’ve already abandoned the possibility that someone else did it. It’s true in sex crimes, murder, burglary, and just about any crime out there that they think was a one-person job.
The prosecution thinks you’re guilty: If a grand jury has decided to indict you, that means they believe there’s enough evidence to move forward with the case. The prosecuting attorney will do everything they can to prove that you’re the one who committed the crime, and he or she will put every piece of evidence in that light. He believes the grand jury.
But that’s not the main reason you’re in trouble, because if you have to deal with a jury things are only going to be at their absolute worst. Why is that?
