Strategic Defense Against Charges Of Indecent Exposure And Lewd Acts
An arrest or conviction for indecent exposure can tarnish a person’s reputation and have long-term effects on employment opportunities. In these cases, police regularly arrest gay men at public parks, public beaches and public facilities, often as a result of entrapment techniques. Even if consensual acts are committed out of sight, and with the intention of privacy, an improper arrest may occur.

Lewd And Lascivious Acts In The Presence Of A Minor
Being convicted of this felony offense — lewd and lascivious acts in the presence of a minor — is very serious and could lead to a prison sentence. If you are being investigated for or charged with this crime, you need skilled legal representation as soon as possible.
This offense does not have to involve a nonconsensual touching or another person. Masturbation or a sex act in the presence of a child is enough. Under the law, it is not even necessary that the child comprehend what is happening. An indecent exposure, or flashing, in the presence of a minor can result in a felony arrest and prosecution. We encourage you to contact Aiken & O’Halloran today if are accused of this offense.
Our criminal defense attorneys have extensive experience in cases involving a variety of sex crime allegations.
