Sex Crimes

A sex crime is a criminal act involving illegal sexual activities. Sex crimes rank high amongst the worst types of criminal acts as they usually involve the physical violation and sexual exploitation of the victim. This is especially true in cases where a minor (person below the legal age) is the victim. Sex crimes should always be taken seriously as they are vigorously prosecuted by law enforcement.

Any person who commits an illegal sex act can be charged with a sex crime in the state of Florida. The extent and severity of criminal charges vary case per case, but will normally depend upon the defendant’s prior criminal record, if the defendant has committed prior sex crimes, if the alleged victim is a minor, or if the alleged victim sustained bodily harm.
