If you have been falsely charged with committing prostitution, which generally, is performing a sexual act or possibly even soliciting to perform a sexual act for an exchange of value, the McConnell Law Firm sex crimes attorneys in Wichita, Kansas, can help.
Led by sex crime Attorney Jonathan W. McConnell, our firm has extensive experience defending against false sexual accusations and charges, including prostitution. In fact, we may choose to employ one of the below tactics in your defense.
(1) Entrapment
If the evidence against you was gathered in an undercover police operation, we will want to determine if you were, in fact, the victim of entrapment. The defense of entrapment could come in to play if a law enforcement officer encouraged or urged you to commit a crime that you wouldn’t have normally committed without their enticement.
(2) No Crime Was Committed
In cases where no value was exchanged, we may assert that no crime was actually committed. We could argue that the encounter was simply two consenting adults engaging in or arranging to have sexual relations.
(3) You Were Under Extreme Duress
If for some reason, it could be argued that you were under extreme duress when the crime occurred, we may be able to make a strong defense for your actions.
Have You Been Charged With Prostitution?
If you are in the Wichita area and have been accused of or charged with committing or soliciting prostitution, the McConnell Law Firm sex crimes attorneys would like to help. Although every case is different and no conclusions should be drawn without a legal consultation to discuss the specifics of your case, it is usually best to hire an attorney immediately following such an accusation or charge.
Contacting the McConnell Law Firm at the beginning of a criminal investigation is best, although we can also provide assistance even after charges have been filed. In a recent case, we helped a Wichita man who was falsely accused of rape and our work eventually resulted in the dismissal of all charges. You can learn more about his story in this YouTube video.
