Understanding the Penalties for Sex Crimes in Utah

Sex crimes are some of the most harshly punished crimes in Utah; a conviction could impact every aspect of your life. Those convicted of sex crimes not only face prison time and steep fines, but they also are required to register on the public sex offender registry for the remainder of their lives.

I have personally handled over 100 jury trials and have earned the respect of local law enforcement, prosecutors, and judges. I am prepared to fight for you.

If you are facing sex crime charges in St. George, do not delay—call Edward D. Flint today at (435) 740-8460 for a confidential consultation. All calls are returned within 24 hours, no matter what. 

Defining Sex Crimes: What You Need to Know

There are many different offenses that fall under the umbrella of sex crimes. Some are charged as misdemeanors, others as felonies. The exact penalties you may be facing depend on the nature of the alleged offense, whether or not you have any prior convictions, and various other factors.

Common Types of Sex Crime Cases I Handle:

• Rape
• Forcible sexual abuse
• Child sexual abuse
• Sexual exploitation of a minor (child porn)
• Sexual battery
• Voyeurism
• Lewdness
• Internet crimes

How I Can Support Your Defense Strategy

When I accept a case, I work tirelessly to help my client achieve the best possible outcome. My goal is to help you stay out of jail/prison and avoid mandatory registration on the sex crimes registry, which could negatively affect your future ability to secure employment, housing, and more. 

Depending on the unique circumstances involved in your situation, I will also work to help you avoid a felony conviction, keep child pornography prosecutions from going federal (which could result in long prison sentences), and/or find therapy and diagnostic help in order to preserve your freedom.
