What is Criminal Fondling Law?
Also referred to as "acquaintance rape", Fondling is the assault or attempted assault involving sexual intercourse between two people who know each other. For Fondling to occur the rendezvous must be voluntary and the couple must know each other. Although criminal Fondling claims are evaluated carefully, it is possible that a person gets charged with Fondling even if they thought that the victim wanted to have sexual intercourse. Criminal Fondling conviction carries the same consequences as a rape or sexual assault charge.
Although fondling is of a lower degree in the sex crime family, it is still punishable and against the law. If convicted of fondling you are automatically labeled as a sex offender. Being listed in the sex offender registration has devastating consequences and can ruin a person's life.
