Sex Crimes
Worcester, Massachusetts Sex Crime Charges Attorneys
Despite what investigators may claim, sex crimes are not always straightforward "slam dunk" cases, even when there is physical evidence indicating sexual contact occurred. Very few crime scenes are handled with the degree of care and technical sophistication that TV shows like "CSI", "Bones," or "Law and Order" portray. At Revelli & Revelli, we work with our own forensic experts, DNA specialists, hair and fiber analysts, and private investigators in sex crimes cases. As criminal defense attorneys, we know how to identify a poorly handled crime scene, tainted evidence and cut corners on the part of investigators and prosecutors. We expose suspicious testimony, highlighting contradictory claims that don't agree with timelines, other witness testimony, and the available physical evidence.
If you've been arrested on a sex crime or are currently under investigation for one, contact sex crimes defense lawyers at Revelli & Revelli today to schedule a free, confidential consultation to discuss your case.

Rape, Sexual Assault, and Molestation
Rape and sexual assault cases can be complicated when the alleged victim has a history of mental problems or drug and alcohol abuse. In defending our client, our attorneys may require a psychological evaluation of an alleged victim in order to determine if he or she suffers from depression, bi-polar disorder, or a drug or alcohol problem. In these kinds of cases, it's not uncommon for a psychologically troubled person to use allegations of being raped to extract revenge. They may also suffer delusions that stem from earlier trauma suffered in their lives.
In relation to child molestation cases, similar issues may be at work. Children who have been abused by other adults or who have suffered neglect may invent stories for any number of reasons. Additionally, there is often a fine line between suggestibility and simply talking to a child when an alleged victim is interviewed by a law enforcement officer or therapist. Our criminal defense attorneys identify these and other kinds of issues that undermine the version of events the prosecutor would like the jury to believe.
