Help from a Mass Defense Lawyer on Failure to
Register as a Sex Offender Charges
Arrested in Massachusetts for Failure to Register
as a Sex Offender?
Registering as a Massachusetts sex offender with the local police
is required if you've been convicted of any sexual offense.
Failing to Register Penalties
According to Massachusetts Sexual Offender Law, you are subject to
6 months in jail if found guilty of failing to register. The
unfortunate fact is that even though you've served your time, you have
to provide your address on a permanent basis. And your address can be
published in a newspaper and be put on the internet. It can cause you
to be harassed and embarrassed by your neighbors. It' can be incredibly
difficult to have a sexual registry following you around.
The police may claim you didn't register in time, or that they
we're satisfied that you registered in time. They may claim you used
the wrong address, or your registration was incomplete. They may claim that you registered someplace that
is not a permanent address if your name isn't on the lease.
A good attorney can help protect you from some of the many
difficulties you fact in Massachusetts for failing to register as a
sex offender. Call me to discuss your situation, and I'll let you know
right away what I can do to help.
Failure to Register Defense Strategies
Many local MA police departments are extremely tough on registered
sex offenders and their requirements, often bordering on harassment.
They can and will make it difficult for you to find a legal residence
at which to register. You may be trying your best to comply with the
law, and be thwarted by police harassment! You just need to find a way
to comply in some degree to get them off your back. It's possible to
register as homeless if you are moving from place to place. In some
cases, the logical thing to do may be to move to another town where
the police won't be constantly following you around.
