Can a Child Protective Services determination of abuse trigger a criminal charge?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Terry Alan Nelson (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Nelson & Lawless
Trigger a criminal charge? Absolutely. I'd be surprised if it didn't. When threatened or charged with any crime, the proper questions are, can any evidence obtained in a test, search or confession be used against you, can you be convicted, and what can you do? A little free advice: exercise the 5th Amendment right to SHUT UP and do NOT talk to police or anyone about the case except with and through an attorney. Raise all appropriate defenses with whatever witnesses, evidence and sympathies are available for legal arguments, for evidence suppression or other motions, or for trial. If you don't know how to represent yourself effectively against an experienced prosecutor intending to convict, then hire an attorney who does, who will try to get a dismissal, charge reduction, diversion, program, or other decent outcome through plea bargain, or take it to trial if appropriate.

Teacher who has a middle school student who won't stop masterbating in class and principal won't do anything about it.

Jose C. Romero
Answered by attorney Jose C. Romero
Criminal Law lawyer at Romero & Associates
Dear concerned teacher, you should call the police, at least do a report, this is criminal behavior. You should protect other students from this behavior.

The guy that molested my child is being charged with 2 felonies, how much jail time is he looking at?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Harry S. Steinmetz (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Office of Harry S. Steinmetz
A sentence in Washington state is based on the seriousness level of the charged offense and the the offender's previous record. There are three levels of child molest and the term is often used to describe other crimes. The way your question is asked it could be 6 months to life.
