Understanding Sexual Assault Charges

Sexual assault is a serious crime that encompasses various forms of non-consensual sexual acts. In New Jersey, there are five common examples of sexual assault charges that individuals may face:

  1. Aggravated Sexual Assault: This charge involves the most severe form of sexual assault, where a person commits penetration by force or while using a deadly weapon. It carries significant penalties and requires strong legal defense to protect your rights.
  2. Sexual Assault: This charge refers to non-consensual acts of sexual penetration, such as rape or forced sodomy. It is punishable by imprisonment and may also involve other consequences, including mandatory sex offender registration.
  3. Aggravated Criminal Sexual Contact: This offense involves engaging in non-consensual sexual contact with the use of physical force, coercion, or extreme impairment. It is a serious offense that can result in severe penalties.
  4. Criminal Sexual Contact: This charge encompasses non-consensual sexual contact that is considered less severe than aggravated criminal sexual contact. It involves unwanted touching or groping with sexual intent, and conviction can lead to significant consequences.
  5. Endangering the Welfare of a Child: In cases involving sexual assault or abuse of a minor, individuals may face charges of endangering the welfare of a child. This charge takes into account physical, mental, and moral aspects of the child's well-being.
