The Implications of Sex Offender Registration
Conviction for a sex crime in California may require you to register as a sex offender under Penal Code section 290. This entails:
- Annual registration with local law enforcement
- Public disclosure of your personal details as a registered sex offender
- Potential criminal charges for failure to comply with registration requirements
Simply put, this is something that no one wants to go through. That is why clearing your name and getting the charges dropped or lessened is essential.
