Few experiences in life are scarier and more stressful than being accused of a crime that you have not committed. Although the American justice system strives to ensure that the innocent are not unjustly held accountable for criminal behavior, the system is imperfect. As a result, too many innocent individuals are ultimately compelled to plead guilty despite their innocence or are convicted after contesting the charges against them. As a result, it is critically important to seek legal guidance from an experienced Fairfax, Virginia criminal lawyer as soon as you have been confronted with accusations of a crime you have not committed. Even if you have yet to be arrested, seeking knowledgeable legal counsel can mean the difference between freedom and imprisonment, a solid reputation and stigma, the perception of innocence and the perception of guilt.

Consider the Following
Whether you have or have not yet been formally charged with a sex crime you did not commit, if you have been falsely accused, you should consider taking a few steps to protect yourself. In addition to speaking with an attorney, one of the most important proactive steps you can take at this point is to be extremely careful about who you are communicating with and what you are saying to anyone other than your Fairfax, VA criminal lawyer. It is critically important to avoid intimidating the person who has uttered false accusations against you. As a result, it may be a good idea to stay off social media, your phone, and your computer generally until you and your attorney have spoken about your communication needs at the present time. Any text, email, social media post, etc. that you send at the moment can be used against you in court, even if it is a private message. Even seemingly harmless electronic communications can come back to bite you, so please be careful.
