Vernon CT Sex Offender Registry Lawyer
Manchester Area Sex Crime Defense Attorney
Pamala J. Favreau
When people hear "sex offender registry," they assume that the person in question is a danger to society and a sexual deviant. However, this is not always the case. There are individuals who are required to register as a sex offender and can be voyeurs, those in possession of illegal images, or even those convicted of consensual sex with an underage partner or person in a protected class.
If you have been accused of a sex crime or have been formally charged, turn to me, attorney Pamala J. Favreau. Since 1989, I have been aggressively standing up for the rights of individuals facing criminal charges, including a wide range of sex crimes. As a sole practitioner, I personally handle all aspects of my clients' cases. I can enlist the assistance of forensic experts when necessary and utilize my knowledge to explain your options to you.
Due to the increased pressure to maintain contact and control over convicted sex offenders, the sex offender registry and a number of related laws have been enacted. These restrict a convicted offender's ability to live in certain places, work in certain places and even be near certain places. One place that may be prohibited may be the area around a school. Also, as part of the registry, the community will be notified that a sex offender will be moving into the area (after release from prison or release to parole or probation). Your privacy may be virtually nonexistent.
Some of the types of crimes that result in mandatory sex offender registration are:
- Sexual assault
- Rape
- Solicitation of minors
- Child molestation
- Child pornography
- Child abuse
- Voyeurism
- Non-violent sex offenses
Exemptions From the Registry
Sometimes it may be possible to obtain an exemption from the sex offender registry. I have experienced assisting clients in completing the application form and arguing their case for the exemption whenever necessary.
If it is not possible to obtain an exemption, we may be able to pursue a restriction of information instead. This limits the amount of information about you that is accessible by the public through the sex offender registry.
DNA Evidence Is Not Required
Every individual that is facing possible sex offender registry should know that they can be convicted upon a minimal amount of evidence. DNA evidence is NOT required to convict on a sex offense.
