Sex Offender Registration In Dallas
If you are charged and found guilty of certain serious sex crimes — even after completing any jail or prison term the court sentenced you to — you may face a lifetime as a registered sex offender. Not only can this carry a large degree of public embarrassment, but it also limits your freedom and creates barriers to where you can live and work. Attorney J. Michael Price II has successfully helped clients in Dallas, Collin County and throughout North Texas avoid the obligation of sex offender registration.
Registration As A Sex Offender Under Megan’s Law
Both the Texas Public Sex Offender Registry and the National Sex Offender Registry are available to anyone with a computer and Internet connection. Statutes requiring sex offender registration are also known as Megan’s Law. Employers, neighbors, friends, schools and anyone else with access can search and view information about you and your crime if the requirement to register was part of your sentence.
Most people do not realize that even cases that are resolved with a deferred adjudication probation (no admission or finding of guilt by the defendant) requires them to register as a sex offender, sometimes for life. When required to do so, failure to register is a crime in and of itself.
Aggressive Representation To Avoid Lifetime Registration
One of the best ways to attack these types of allegations is to prepare a presentation packet for the grand jury that will ultimately decide if you are to be indicted and formally charged. By presenting our side of the case to the grand jury, you can possibly eliminate ever being charged with these types of crime and obtaining a no-bill. Polygraph examination, reference letters, relevant information from ongoing divorce or child custody proceeding and discrepancies in the police investigation can give the grand jury the complete picture of the case. Without this information, they will only hear what the police and prosecutor want them to hear.
