Sex Crime Case Study

Some would find this scenario humorous because of it being a male as the victim and that woman shouldn’t be more victimized because they are women in the and be questioned on whether they were raped.

Sex crimes have been existence for many years all over the world. When we look at sex crimes there are different categories in which they can be categorized. Sexual assault is one of the most growing violent crimes in America.

In 1996, Megan’s Law was created to help police during their investigation of sex crimes and to let the public know about the identities and location of the offender. Along with the Adam Walsh Child Protection and the Safety Act of 2006, sex offenders must fill a list of information about themselves in a database; this includes their names, finger prints, a recent photo, etc. this database has three risk tiers in order to know how dangerous the offender is, with tier one is the lowest risk and tier three being the highest. With the community being a big part in dealing with sex offenders, notification statutes were made for people who want information about them. With community notification laws in place, parents must take extra precaution

The term "statutory rape" is defined as “sexual relations between an underage minor female and an adult male or vice versa” (Criminology: The Core). Individuals that engage in sexual activity should be at the age of consent. The age of consent varies by state laws and the legal ramifications for breaking this law is set in accordance with their ethical standards. The age of consent law even considers sexual relation between a minor and adult that is non-violent or unforced to be statutory rape.

The accusation of statutory rape can insult both parties involved when the case is of a completely consensual & committed relationship. Since the year 2003 the legality is expected to be easily understood, if one person isn’t giving consent, with the capacity to do so, and the other involved does not think there’s consent, that is an offence. So when two people in a committed relationship are being punished for something that any other normal couple could do without such extreme consequences, is the statutory rape law really just?

In the United States sex crimes are a serious problem and the legal system don’t have a process of punishing sex criminals. My project show sex offenders don’t get sufficient prison sentence and parole is often too quick. The men that appears feminine will give the impression they are gay and masculine women will take the role as a lesbian. This project shed light on the race, age, gender, education level, and marital status of sex offenders within neighborhoods and communities. Although, sex offenders have evolved with the help of the internet and portable devices.

It’s crazy how people can walk this earth while judging people and not know what they go through, or they can bully and try to take control of them. These people could have been raped, bullied, or abused because there is a strong chance they were more than likely women because women are most likely to be raped at a young age; or even hurt. During the courses of a woman’s life 29.9% of them are raped between the ages of 11-17 by older men (violence). This is known as Statutory Rape and those who’ve had this happen to them are very different after it has happen. There are many symptoms to this and they can scar or even ruin someone’s life. Statutory Rape is an ever increasing problem in our society; girls who are raped underage will suffer life

who commit a sexual offence while 90% are women who are the victims to above-mentioned assault (Brennan & Taylor-Butts, 2008: 10).

Crime scenes present many possibilities and evidence that may aid investigators in the apprehension and possibly conviction of a known or unknown offender. While this evidence are present at a scene of a crime, it requires specialized training on the part of law enforcement officials to effectively, efficiently and accurately, collect, record and preserve these evidence. Chain of command is especially vital at each stage of the evidence collection, as evidence can easily be lost and even tampered with. Sex crimes are especially sensitive, as trained professionals have to exercise empathy to what or who may be perceived as the main evidence; the victim. The victim may hold the key to a lot of information that will help

Sexual assault happens ubiquitously and has been accounted for crosswise over different societies and among all demographic and financial gatherings. Numerous sexual assault victims still postpone reporting or don't report viciousness sexual occurrences at all. A rape victim may delay care due to fear of their perpetrator (Adefolalu, 2014). Victims who go to their primary physicians may experience a delay because the doctor also may not have adequate expertise (LeVay & Baldwin, 2011.) Health care providers are required to report all sexual abuse and rapes to the police(LeVay & Baldwin, 2011, Adefolalu, 2014). However, the victim may not oblige in cooperation or press charges. A victim may have a plethora of evidence

Investigation of crime has always been known for its difficult task because crime are not committed in the same manner; hence, investigations on these crime can’t be conducted the same also. There are different investigation and reporting techniques for each crime and this is seen from the evidence gathered or interview of the suspects, victims, and eye witnesses. Sex crime is categorized into three different types and they are: domestic, stranger, and acquaintance. Before any investigation can take place, the sex crime must be determined because the difference is important for the investigators since discrete strategies are needed to cope with each type of investigation. Typologies investigation of sex crime includes evidence gathering techniques,

March 16th, 2017 was the fateful day that a 14 year old girl's life was changed forever. She is a freshman at Rockville High School and was raped by two illegal immigrants, Jose Montano, 17, and Henry Sanchez, 18. This horrendous act caused an outrage in the Montgomery County community. Many protested outside of the high school with signs screaming “safety not sanction” and “save our daughters no sanction” ("Rockville High School Parents Demand Answers in Rape Case"video). There is more than meets the eye when it comes to this case and there is plenty of evidence to prove so.

The topic that we talked about in the class, Sex Crimes and the Law that really interested me was the topic of rape. After having the guest speaker that was a Temple student really bothered me and I thought about it for days. For starters, I think it is absolutely scary that she was rapped on Temple University’s campus, to be exact in Peabody hall and absolutely nothing was done to help her. This is bothering me the most because I am a Temple student, this happened in her own room, no one helped her, and her rapist is still out there. I feel horrible that no one even tried to help and most people even made it seem like it was her fault by saying things such as “you know you wanted it”. No one wants to be rapped and the victim should never be to blame. This poor girl tried to kill herself multiple times. I believe that no one should go through this trauma alone or even go through it at all. Since our guest speaker, I have gone on a binge of watching Law & Order: SVU and even through about becoming a special victim unit detective for my career. Another reason that the topic of rapped bothered me was because just recently one of my friends came out and said that she was raped by her boyfriend. No one even knew this happened until she made it public on Facebook. For the longest time she was drawn back and really did not hang out with the group and now I know why. The guest speaker really helped me to understand, just to be there for her. When she wants to talk she will and not

Feminism is still relevant in 2016 because of the Stanford rape case because rape culture is still prevalent, women continue to be shamed after being victimized, and a women are held against a man’s word.

Sexual offending is a crime committed by both male and female perpetrators. The crime of sexual offending varies by situation and incident, although the seriousness of the offence stays the same, male and female offenders share similarities and differences which can have an impact on the way the victims of these two genders report the offences. Taking this deviant relationship into account, it will be shown that although sexual offences are committed by both genders with stark differences, the reporting of the offence remains low between victims of these offenders. The similarities between the two genders exist on the emotional level. Both have a tendency of low self-esteem and poor social skills.
