Sex Crimes
The mere allegation that a person has committed a sex crime can stigmatize that person for life. Over the years, Bruce A. Yerman has defended innocent clients accused of sex crimes, including:
- A cab driver falsely accused by a mentally ill passenger.
- A hospital worker falsely accused by a patient who craved attention.
- A parent falsely accused by a child who resented being disciplined.
- A step-parent falsely accused by a step-child who wanted the step-parent out of the house.
Whether innocent or guilty, anyone accused of a sex crime needs zealous representation at the earliest opportunity, because the stakes are so high.
Many people convicted of sex crimes face mandatory prison terms, followed by long periods of post-release supervision.
The impact of a sex-crime conviction continues long after sentence is imposed. The Sex Offender Registration Act ("SORA") requires convicted sex offenders to register with the State of New York, often for life. Most registered sex offenders must identify themselves in a publicly accessible online database by name, address and photograph. Failure to properly register can result in additional criminal charges.
Upon release from prison, sex offenders who are classified as mentally abnormal and dangerous face the possibility of lifetime civil confinement in a secure treatment facility.
Bruce A. Yerman is dedicated to achieving the best possible outcomes for each of his clients accused of committing a sex crime.For a FREE CONSULTATION, Call Bruce A. Yerman, Criminal Defense at 646-233-2341
