Understanding Sexual Assault Charges in California
Sexual assault is a serious criminal charge in our state, and can involve many separate illegal acts, such as the following:
- Date rape (or acquaintance rape)
- Rape
- Sexual exploitation of a minor
- Child molestation
- Enticement of a minor
A person convicted of sexual assault can face penalties that include probation, mandatory registration as a sex offender, and jail or prison time. Should the crime involve an aggravating factor, these penalties can become even more severe. Examples of aggravating factors include the use of a weapon, the involvement of a child in the crime, and the victim legitimately fearing serious bodily harm.
