Sex Crimes Attorney – Brett Podolsky

It’s well-understood that being accused of a sex crime is a devastating burden to bear. Sex crimes are unlike any other crime when it comes to mounting a defense in the Texas court system. That’s why it’s essential to retain the services of a qualified Houston-area sex crimes lawyer at the very beginning of a sex crime investigation. Many innocent defendants are falsely accused and convicted of sex crimes because of the emotionally charged nature of the offense.

The Law Office of Brett A. Podolsky has the experience and skill needed to protect when charged with a sex crime in Houston. He knows what prosecutors look for and how to defend against it. Contact his office today to discuss your case.

Sex Crime Defense Strategies

What can be done about a false sex crime accusation, especially when a child is involved? An experienced sex crimes attorney possesses the skills, experience and resources to protect a defendant’s constitutional rights. Each and every sex crime case is different. As such, every statement and circumstance must be carefully investigated and scrutinized by a knowledgeable criminal defense lawyer.

Motivation of the Sex Crime Accuser

It’s hard to believe that anyone would falsely accuse someone else of committing a sex crime, but it happens every day. Understanding the motivation of an accuser is one of many essential elements when developing an effective defense strategy. Expert psychological analysis and other investigative techniques often disclose useful facts concerning the motivation of an accuser. Consider this partial list of possible motivations behind a charge of sexual impropriety:

  • Covering up a consensual sex act: As crazy as it sounds, rape and sexual assault charges often stem from an overpowering desire to conceal an act of consensual sex. Preserving one’s reputation by claiming sexual abuse is quite common.
  • Custody disputes: A child molestation accusation can be a difference maker in a custody dispute. Raising the flag of unlawful sexual behavior can easily influence the perspective of therapists, mediators and judges. A sex crime conviction can literally cause a parent to lose their parental rights.
  • Financial considerations: A claim of inappropriate sexual behavior can be an effective tool for extorting money from an innocent defendant. Employers and celebrities are among the many potential victims of this unscrupulous tactic for gaining financial advantage.

Sex Crimes Evidence

A conviction for a sex crime in Texas can result in severe penalties. A defense lawyer will immediately take action to suppress evidence that was obtained illegally by police investigators. The suppression laws are different in sex crimes cases. The evidence in a child sex abuse case is often tainted by leading questions. Children are naturally susceptible to suggestive questions and statements; only an established sex crimes lawyer is prepared to undermine this kind of potentially harmful testimony.
