Juvenile Sex Offenses
One of the best kept secrets in Michigan is the fact that juveniles who plead guilty to sex crimes are subject to sex offender registration starting on their 18th birthday. Few parents contemplate that their children can be penalized for decades for something they did as a juvenile. However, that is the net effect for a juvenile sex crime conviction. By trusting the juvenile justice system, you will be sacrificing your child's future.
Many juveniles are coerced into pleading guilty to sex offenses such as rape, statutory rape or sexual assault. Your child may think that he or she is getting off easy with probation. As a parent, you may think that your child has done the responsible thing by accepting the plea. Then you find out on your child's 18th birthday that he or she has to register as a sex offender for the next 25 years.
