Dos and Don'ts After Being Charged with a Sex Crime
If you are being charged with rape or a similar sex crime, here are some practical tips to consider helping maximize the effectiveness of your defense:
- Do hire legal counsel right away.
- Do collect any physical evidence related to the event in question, such as clothing and photographs.
- Do collect any relevant documentation such as emails, voicemails, letters, text messages, or GPS data, especially if this evidence proves you were not at the location where the crime occurred.
- Do create a list of possible witnesses and their contact information.
Here are some things to avoid after an accusation:
- Don't attempt to contact the victim in any way.
- Don't talk to police or investigators without your attorney present.
- Don't agree to any non-mandatory testing, even if you think it will prove your innocence.
- Don't hand over any evidence to law enforcement without consulting your lawyer.
- Don't allow access to your home, office or vehicle without first getting legal representation.
