Like any sex crime prosecution, a conviction or even guilty plea means that you may end up in prison (Aggravated Sexual Abuse in the Fourth Degree carries a maximum four year sentence), but also that you’ll have been convicted of a registerable offense, and will appear on New York’s sex offender registry for a period of years or longer.
New York does not allow criminal records to be expunged, so you’ll permanently have to reveal your status as a felon when you apply for jobs or housing.
Your options in both will be extremely limited because of the fact of your conviction, and the fact that it is for a sex crime.
