Keep Your Record Clean - Stay Off the Sex Offender Registry
Utah law has several sex-related criminal offenses, almost all of which will be charged and prosecuted as felony crimes punishable by a prison term. Rape, child molestation, and possession of Internet pornography are common examples of sex crimes.
If you or someone you know has been arrested on any type of sex crime, it is critically important to seek knowledgeable legal assistance as soon as possible. The extreme seriousness of a sex crimes conviction cannot be underestimated.

Furthermore, the convicted person may be prohibited from owning any kind of firearm, including shotguns and hunting rifles. Convicted sex offenders may be prohibited from holding certain public offices and teaching jobs.
