Texas is known to be very tough in its prosecution of sex crimes, especially sex crimes against children. A person who has been accused of a sex crime in Texas often faces many years in prison and lifetime registration as a sexual offender. He is often able to persuade the prosecutor not to file charges by investigating and producing evidence that the case is untenable. Avoiding charges is always the first priority, because even if you are not convicted, you may be presumed to be guilty by former friends, neighbors, and employers.
