Date Rape is considered a serious Sex Crime in the State of Florida. Date rape involves any non-consensual sex act where the alleged victim was unable to give consent due to physical or mental incapacitation.
Many date rape claims involve the alleged victim being drugged, in the state of being passed out, or by restraint of the alleged victim.
Make no mistake about it. If the State Attorney chooses to indict you for a date rape crime, the prosecution will be aggressive and with full intention to put you behind bars.
A date rape conviction can range from 5 years in prison to life, depending on the specific circumstances and evidence brought against you.
If you have been charged with a date rape crime, seek experience legal counsel immediately. Attorney Adam B. Reiss will listen to your story, examine all of the evidence against you, inform you of how the law applies to your specific case, and inform you of what your rights are, in addition to what the best possible defense strategies may be in your case.
