Solicitation of a Minor Charges
Solicitation of a minor is a very serious sex crime, and conviction will affect you for the rest of your life. Not only are you facing a possible prison sentence, your job, your family and social relationships, and your reputation are at risk. Like child pornography or molestation, charges for solicitation of a minor carry a negative stigma that can follow you wherever you go. To further add insult to injury, you may have to register as a sex offender for the rest of your life.
Solicitation of a minor is a third-degree felony, but under Florida law, if you have made any effort to actually meet the minor that was allegedly solicited, you may be facing second-degree felony charges with a potential 15-year prison sentence. If the accusation involves a minor with a family or custodial relationship, battery charges are often additionally filed.
Technology's Impact on Solicitation Charges
Charges for solicitation of a minor have increased dramatically with the widespread availability of communication mediums such as the internet and text messaging. The media has brought a great deal of attention to the problem of internet solicitations, and the police have responded aggressively. Many good people with families are being caught up in the rush to prosecute alleged offenders.
If you are being investigated or have been charged with solicitation of a minor, it is critical that you contact a Miami sex crimes defense lawyer right away.
