California’s Sex Crime Laws

Sex crime allegations in California can include but are not limited to:

  • Rape, forcing sexual intercourse upon another without his or her consent, which can include spousal rape, date rape, and statutory rape which involves sexual intercourse with a minor under the age of 18
  • Forced oral sex, which involves using force, threats, or violence
  • A sex act with a child under the age of 10 whether oral copulation or other forms of rape
  • Possession, manufacture, or distribution of child pornography
  • Lewd acts with a child consisting of touching someone under the age of 15 for one’s own sexual gratification
  • Indecent exposure
  • Lewd conduct in public, such as the touching of sexual parts of another’s body while in view of others in public or having sex in public
  • Sexual battery, touching the sexual parts of another’s body without his or her consent for one’s own gratification or for abuse
  • Soliciting a prostitute
  • Prostitution

Examples of penalties that can result from the conviction of a sex crime include three to eight years in prison for rape. In the case of statutory rape, if the alleged victim is under 16 and you are 21 or older, the penalties may entail either up to a year in jail or up to four years in prison, depending on the circumstances. In the case of sexual battery, if the alleged victim was restrained, it can result in up to a year in jail or up to four years in prison along with a $10,000 fine.

Additional consequences may be mandatory sex offender registration under California’s Megan’s Law, which can be for life. Failure to register is considered a criminal offense. Information about your identity is made public through the registry and you will be subject to various restrictions concerning employment and where you can live.
