What penalties could I face?

The law defines child molestation as attempting to entice or coerce a person under the age of 16 to engage in sexual behavior or to arouse the interests of either that child or the offender.

For a first-time offender, under Georgia Title 16, ยง16-6-4, the penalties may be:

  • Imprisonment between 5 to 20 years
  • Probation
  • Mandatory counseling

For a second conviction, the prison sentence could be anywhere from 30 years to life. The state does have the obligation to inform the accused that he or she may face life imprisonment, should the case be brought to trial.

The repercussions of being charged with molestation can follow for many years to come. Not only does this leave a blemish on your good name and reputation, you could risk losing your children. There is also the threat of imprisonment and the hardships and reduced quality of life that imprisonment brings. All of these reasons are precisely why you need to call Weintraub & Alper Legal to work on your case.
