The punishments for those convicted of an Oklahoma Sex Crime have increased more than any other area of law over the years.
Internet sex crimes are one of the fasting growing areas of concern across all of Oklahoma. With the advent of the internet, Federal and State prosecutors have focused their efforts on catching “online predators,” by cooperating with police and FBI to set up sting operations. FBI agents will pose as minors online and attempt to set up a meeting where the person is arrested.
Solicitation of a minor by means of technology, possession or distribution of child pornography, and “sexting” are some of the most common types of sex crimes that happen in Oklahoma.
Commonly referred to as “child molestation,” indecent or lewd acts with a minor is another common sex crime that involves the touching, fondling, or sexual abuse of a minor. A conviction for lewd acts with a minor carries up to life in prison and mandatory sex offender registration for life.
Statutory Rape is an act of sexual intercourse involving vaginal or anal penetration where the victim is legally unable to consent. The most common type of statutory rape occurs when the victim is below sixteen years of age. Sometimes the use of force or violence is alleged, but most statutory rapes cases involve a consensual sexual encounter.
Rape is the act of sexual intercourse involving vaginal or anal penetration where the victim is either unwilling or unable to consent. The most common type of rape occurs when the victim is forced into a sexual encounter. Usually this involves the use of force or violence. Sometimes, even where the victim willfully consents to the sexual act, they are legally unable to give consent. Examples of these include;
Indecent Exposure usually involves a person who intentionally and deliberately exposes a portion or portions of his/her private body parts, i.e. their genitalia, in a lewd manner to offend or annoy the general public. Common examples of acts that can result in indecent exposure charges are masturbation, sexual intercourse or exhibitionism in a public place, or simply “flashing” a person’s genitals. In Oklahoma, Indecent Exposure is a Felony that carries up to 10 years in prison and fines of up to $20,000
Sexual battery is an Oklahoma sex crime that involves the unwanted touching or feeling of another person who is at least 16 years old for purposes of sexual gratification. A sexual battery charge or arrest can be one of the hardest sex crimes to prove, as the definition of a sexual touching is vague and subject to interpretation. The most common types of sexual battery charges involve one person grabbing the breasts or buttocks of another person.
