Few criminal charges carry more social stigma than sexual assault and rape. That stigma can be as long lasting and pervasive as it is severe. With the access to public records and the reporting policies that are in place regarding informing the public of when a sex offender is moving into or living in their neighborhood, a conviction on a sex crime may be something that you will have to deal with every day for the rest of your life.
In addition to the severe prison sentences that can be a part of a sex crimes conviction, being forced to register as a sex offender can have a direct impact on such issues as:
- Securing employment — Background checks are becoming a part of the employment for almost all jobs. A sex crimes conviction is a difficult thing for a potential employer to get past.
- Finding a place to live — Landlords may not wish to court the controversy of renting to a convicted sex offender. Further, your probation officer may not allow you to live in certain locations.
