Forcible Rape
Forcible rape can happen as a “random” act amongst strangers, it can happen between
two people that know each other, and it can happen in conjunction with a violent crime.
District Attorney’s Offices are vigorous in prosecuting these serious, and often violent,
felony cases. These are not charges to take lightly. If you or someone you know is being
accused of committing a forcible rape, there are many reasons why that person needs to be
represented by a knowledgeable and experienced sex crimes defense attorney. In the day and age
of advanced forensic science, having a sex crimes defense lawyer that is familiar with this type
of evidence is imperative. Often, the evidence in rape cases can be weak for the prosecution.
Many cases of this nature rely heavily on the existence of DNA evidence. Furthermore, there are
many potential defenses to sex crimes cases, including alleged forcible rape cases. Some examples
are: consent; insufficient evidence; and mistaken identity. Contact the sex crimes defense
