Have You Been Charged With Indecent Solicitation Of A Child In Rhode Island? Indecent Solicitation of a Child in Rhode Island is a very serious offense. The Rhode Island Code, Chapter 11-37 defines Indecent Solicitation of a Child as a person willfully looking for someone under the age of eighteen to take part in prostitution. This crime falls under the banner of sexual assault. You may be accused of indecent solicitation of a child if you solicit a minor who is under the age of eighteen. This can be by allowing, provoking, asking, recommending, or prompting the child to take part in prostitution. This can also be through advertising verbally, in writing, through messaging apps, and online, along with a host of other means. Aggravating factors are determined by the child's age, whether you lured the child into a vehicle, building, or other space. These actions can lead to other offenses, including child molestation, kidnapping, snatching, and more. It's essential that you find yourself an indecent solicitation of a child attorney as quickly as possible to review your situation, gather essential evidence, and examine important factors to reduce fines, charges and look at alternative sentencing options. The attorney should provide a consultation where you can sit down and discuss what has happened, giving them your side of the story. Why do you need an indecent solicitation of a child attorney with you from the moment you are first accused? The consequences of solicitation in Rhode Island are harsh with exceptionally strict laws.
