MICHIGAN CRIMINAL SEXUAL CONDUCT DEFENSE ATTORNEY

AN INDIVIDUAL CAN BE CHARGED WITH A CRIMINAL SEXUAL CONDUCT OFFENSE BASED UPON FALSE ALLEGATIONS, IT IS TIME TO FIGHT BACK

The reality is that many people are falsely accused of and wrongfully charged with committing a criminal sexual conduct offense or criminal sexual assault because the law only requires that an allegation be made. An individual may be convicted of a criminal sexual conduct offense without any physical evidence of an assault or any other supporting evidence. In Michigan, all the law requires is that someone makes an allegation. Those allegations are often times turned over to law enforcement officers who are taught to believe that all allegations are probably true.
