There are many facets to sex crime investigations in the State of Florida. Skilled sex crime lawyers on the experienced team at Musca Law Firm know the intricacies of state-conducted sex crime investigations in Florida; they will mount an aggressive defense in an effort to preserve your freedom, rights and dignity.
Deceptive Methods May Capture the Innocent
Types of sex crimes run the gamut from voyeurism to lust murders. If you get convicted of a sex crime in Florida, you face loss of freedom for many years, a permanent criminal record, social alienation, substantial fines and required registration as a sex offender. Sex crime investigations often employ questionable tactics in order to obtain an arrest and a charge. Law enforcement investigators have been known to use trickery, deceit, sting operations and false internet websites to capture and arrest alleged violators. Innocent persons may get caught in a sex crime sting; immediate legal representation is essential to protect and maintain your freedom.
When first approached with questions about any sex crime, call an experienced criminal defense team to represent you. It is highly inadvisable to consider self-representation – especially in a sex offense. The Florida Sexual Predators Act (775.21) details sex crimes and punishment; various state bills have been passed to control the lives and movements of convicted sex offenders. Without proper representation you may settle for an inferior plea or a guilty verdict that may result in a sentence of decades or life without parole. Musca Law Firm attorneys are aware of the questionable tactics that police and investigators may assert in order to obtain a conviction. Call for help at one of our four offices; we are located in Miami, Jacksonville, Tampa and Orlando.
Talk only to your criminal defense attorney and do so as soon as you are approached or arrested. Even though authorities are trying to protect the public against violent and repeat sex offenders, sometimes an innocent person gets hauled in with the guilty. Sex crime investigations often obtain statements from persons of disrepute; such a statement may be misconstrued to your detriment. Musca Law Firm has a team of skilled criminal defense attorneys with a combined background of over 100 years winning sex crime cases. This team approach ensures that your case will be thoroughly prepared for all court hearings and appearances.
