Felony rape charges, like Rape in the Third Degree (NY PL 130.25), are charges that can ruin your life even if you aren’t convicted.
The allegation that you engaged in sexual intercourse with a person under the age of 17, or a person who did not consent, is extremely damaging.
Jobs, apartments, and loans to go to school, buy a home, or start a business will all vanish if you’re convicted of this class E felony.
Penalties for Rape in the Third Degree can run as long as four years in prison, and you’ll be subject to registration as a sex offender in New York once you’re released.
You must take affirmative steps to protect yourself from these charges right away, and that begins with contacting the most experienced Rochester criminal defense attorneys you can find.
