Federal Sex Crime Defense Attorney: Sexual Abuse of a Child

Certain types of sexual abuse cases are charged in federal court, including those that fall under §2244, abusive sexual contact. Any person in federal prison or under the jurisdiction of the U.S. who engages in unwanted sexual contact with another person, against their will and without their permission will be charged in federal court. The penalties can range from fines to imprisonment up to 6 months. When the violation is under §2241, aggravated sexual abuse and a sexual act took place, the penalty can be up to 10 years in federal prison. When the case involves a child under the age of 12, the penalties are doubled. The danger of serious repercussions is so great that every effort to defend you against the charges should be undertaken without delay. Attorney Michael Mirer has the extensive experience in defending serious federal sex crime accusations that you will need to fight for your freedom in court.
