According to Arizona Revised Statute § 13-1410, you could be charged with the crime of child molestation if you intentionally or knowingly engage in sexual contact with a child under the age of 15. By law, sexual contact can refer to touching, fondling, or any contact with genitals. If sexual intercourse or oral sex occurs between a minor under the age of 15 and an adult, the charges would be elevated to “sexual conduct with a minor”—which carries even harsher penalties under Arizona law.
In addition to the penalties listed below, you will be listed on the sex offender registry and placed on lifetime sex offender probation, which is intense and often times results in failure. Prosecutors do not hesitate to demand the harshest penalties in these cases. Your best option is to obtain the services of an experienced criminal defense attorney in Phoenix.
If you have been charged with child molestation, or are simply under investigation, it would be wise to contact the team at Suzuki Law Offices, L.L.C. as soon as possible.
