Rape is a heinous crime that has severe consequences for the victim. No one likes a rapist. But you know what’s worse than rape? Being accused of rape when there was no rape?
The line between rape and consensual sex can be blurry, and it’s not always a clear-cut case of one person being in wrong and the is an innocent victim. Unfortunately, this can lead to false accusations and innocent people being falsely charged with rape. It happens it happens a lot
Imagine this scenario: you are at a party where alcohol is being consumed. You meet a woman who is willing to have consensual sex with you. You engage in sexual activity, and at the time, both parties are in agreement and willing. However, the next morning, the woman regrets what happened and claims that she was raped.
When the police interview you, you admit to having had consensual sex, but you deny that it was rape. The police don’t listen and arrest you on charges of rape.
This is beyond a difficult and stressful situation to be in, but it’s important to remember that you are not alone. You have rights and that you are innocent until proven guilty. That’s where the McShane Firm comes in. Our experienced attorneys are committed to protecting the rights of our clients and fighting for justice in the face of false accusations.
When it comes to rape cases, consent is a crucial element, and it’s not always a simple matter of one person saying yes and the other saying no. In cases where alcohol is involved, the issue of consent can be even more complicated. The prosecution must prove that the alleged victim did not give their consent, and that the accused knew or should have known that consent was not given.
At the McShane Firm, we understand the complexities of rape cases and we have the knowledge and experience to build a strong defense on your behalf. We will thoroughly investigate the evidence against you, question the credibility of the prosecution’s witnesses, and challenge any inconsistencies in the alleged victim’s account of the events. We will do so vigorously
Our attorneys will also work to negotiate a plea deal if it is in your best interest, or take your case to trial if necessary. We will be by your side every step of the way, providing you with the guidance and support you need to navigate this difficult process.
It is important to remember that it is not your responsibility to prove your innocence, it is the responsibility of the prosecution to prove your guilt. With our expertise, you can rest assured that you are in good hands and that we will do everything in our power to protect your rights and defend your innocence.
