| Rape, Sex Crimes |
"For years, a significant portion of my activity as
a Delaware lawyer (Delaware Attorney) has been representing persons charged with
so-called sex crimes. Primarily these crimes consist of Rape, Sexual Penetration
and Unlawful Sexual Contact.
The remarks that I have made regarding the necessity of having an
accomplished defense lawyer and criminal trial attorney in the context
of homicide apply with equal force in the area of sex crimes, particularly
that of Rape.
Nowhere are the cross-examination
skills of a trial attorney more pronounced than is found in the context of examining
a person who claims to have been victimized by rape or related sexual abuse offenses.
Again, one's future hangs in the balance depending up on the selection of the
trial attorney who effects representation for Rape and other sex crimes."
