It is common knowledge that criminal penalties continue to increase for those convicted of child molestation. At the same time, public support for alternatives to prison and incarceration, including mental health treatment, have simply fallen out of favor. There tend to be two kinds of individuals charged with these crimes; those who have been falsely accused of committing child molestation; and those who actually have committed child molestation. As an experienced criminal defense lawyers, the attorneys at the Law Offices of Robert Byers are experienced in handling both of these types of child molestation cases.

 Those Who Have Been Falsely Accused

Despite the existence of well-publicized cases where false accusations have resulted in terrible miscarriages of justice, there has been no public outcry for increasing legal protection for those accused of child abuse or child molestation. In fact in California, the hearsay rule has been eroded to make it even easier to convict people of criminal charges on the basis of testimony from children who often are incapable of distinguishing reality from fantasy. In this environment, it is absolutely imperative that a person charged with child molestation retain qualified legal representation from an experienced criminal defense lawyer.

Many times they are productive members of society who have never been charged with any crime other than a crime or crimes relating to child abuse. There is a substantial body of medical knowledge suggesting that those who commit acts of child molestation are suffering from a form of mental illness. For this reason, there are some mental health professionals who feel that mental health treatment is a more appropriate and productive way to of responding to the problem of child molestation than long years of incarceration in prison. However, there currently is little public support for such a policy. Rather than providing mental health treatment, draconian prison sentences are how society currently chooses to deal with the problem of child molestation. Those charged with committing child molestation are despised, ostracized and shunned by society to an extent far greater than that experienced by persons accused of any other type of crime, even violent murder. Recognizing that mental illness lies at the root of most cases of child molestation, the attorneys at Byers & Warrick provide compassionate, caring and experienced legal representation to those individuals who have been charged with child molestation.
