Helena Rape Charges Attorney


Helena Rape is a forced sexual intercourse through physical and/or psychological intimidation. There are different types of rape such as date rape, statutory rape, and spousal rape.  Helena Montana Date rape is a forced sex act between two people whom know one another during a social engagement such as a date or going to dinner.  Even though the two people know one another, if a sex act was coerced, it is considered rape.  Statutory rape is a sex act between an adult and a minor under the legal age of 18.  Even if the minor consents to the sex act, it is still considered statutory rape, because of the age limit.  Helena Spousal rape is a forced sex act between a husband and wife.  If a husband or wife does not consent to a sex act, and the sex act is forced, it is considered rape.   

Helena MT Rape Conviction Punishments Rape is a severe Helena sex crime.  If a person is convicted of rape in Helena MT, he or she faces a variety of punishments such as:
  1. Helena Montana Imprisonment for rape
  2. Helena Court ordered rehabilitation for rape
  3. Helena Monetary fines for rape
  4. Loss of the right to vote for rape
  5. Loss of the right to own a deadly weapon if convicted of rape
  6. Helena Probation requirements for rape convictions
Punishments can be superior if the Helena offender committed statutory rape, has prior Helena criminal convictions, is on probation, or if there are aggravating circumstances.   

People who are convicted of rape must list their name on the Sex Offender Registry.  According to Sex Offender Registration Act, sex offenders are categorized by risk of re-offense.  The court decides if the convicted offender is (low risk),  (moderate risk), or (high risk).  The court also categorizes each convicted sex offender as a sexual predator, sexually violent offender, or predicate sex offender.  If a person’s name is on the Sex Offender Registry, they may have limited employment and housing options, as future landlords and employers look negatively upon sex crime convictions.
