Combatting Allegations Of Sex Crimes In Kentucky With Sensitivity And Discretion
Sex crime allegations often stem from situations that were once private but then escalate into criminal accusations. Sex crimes encompass a wide range of offenses, each carrying severe repercussions that extend far beyond legal penalties. You may be facing not only the possibility of long-term incarceration and fines but also long-term consequences such as mandatory registration as a sex offender. Additionally, the stigma of being accused of a sex offense can lead to social isolation and ostracization, severely impacting your personal relationships, employment opportunities and community standing.
