What Should I Do If I’m Arrested for a Sex Crime?

In mid-May, the North Texas Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force’s Operation Medusa led to 15 sex crime arrests in Collin County. The arrests reportedly helped break up a child pornography ring. The 15 people arrested are facing charges for online solicitation of a minor, possession of child pornography, possession with the intent to promote child pornography and invasive visual recording.

How Can a Criminal Defense Lawyer Help Me If I’m Arrested for a Sex Crime?

If you are arrested for a sex crime, such as rape, prostitution or child pornography, an experienced criminal defense attorney may be able to help you. The consequences for being convicted of these types of crimes, which are generally felonies, are often severe.

However, there are legal defenses that can help people arrested for sex crimes. By having a criminal defense attorney take on your case right away, it allows your lawyer to immediately begin investigating the circumstances of your arrest and prepare a defense that gives you a chance to have your charges reduced or even dismissed.

Dallas criminal defense attorney Mike Goolsby spent time as a trial lawyer for the District Attorney’s office in Dallas County. His experience working in the DA’s office gives him a unique perspective of criminal justice system in Texas that often helps him defend the legal rights of people accused of crimes in Dallas.
