Juvenile Sex Offenses In Delaware

There is a growing trend among teenagers being charged with sex offenses such as sending, receiving, and distributing child pornography. These charges are from the teens taking nude or provocative photos of themselves and texting, forwarding, or emailing them to friends. Many of these photos can also end up on social media and networking websites.

Despite your child being a juvenile, there is a chance they may be tried as an adult. If that is the case their freedom is jeopardized as is their future and academic status. If your child is being accused of sending and receiving nude photos or videos in Delaware it is very important that you call Sussex County and Kent County, Delaware Juvenile Defense Attorney Ronald D. Phillips.

Penalties For Juvenile Sex Offenses In Delaware

In some instances, the penalties for a juvenile sex offense may be the same as an adult who is convicted of a violent sex crime such as rape. Penalties may include fines, fees, probation, possible jail time as well as mandatory sex offender registration. Many times the penalties are so harsh since these behaviors often progress into adulthood and there is a good chance that the accused may be rearrested for a felony sex crime sometime after they turn 18.
