Sex Offenses

All branches of the military aggressively prosecute allegations of rape, aggravated sexual assault, aggravated sexual contact, abusive sexual contact, and indecent acts. Such allegations fall under Article 120, UCMJ and/or Article 134, UCMJ. Quite often, the prosecution of a military member under such a charge is based solely upon the statement of a single accuser. If convicted of a sexual offense, a military member faces the likelihood of very lengthy confinement and punitive discharge. In addition, a military member convicted in a court-martial of a sex offense will be required to register as a sex offender. For all these reasons, it is important for any member accused of a sex offense in the military to obtain an aggressive military defense attorney who is experienced in defending these types of cases.
