Of all crimes in the Commonwealth, sex crimes are most aggressively prosecuted. Anyone charged with a Massachusetts sex offense is at enormous risk of having his or her life completely ruined if a conviction results. The punishments for Massachusetts sex crimes are harsh: convictions can carry up to 20 years in state prison, in addition to lengthy probation, court-ordered GPS monitoring (with an electronic device locked on to your ankle or wrist) and court-ordered psychotherapy. These harsh punishments can include registering for life as a sex offender with the Massachusetts Sex Offender Registry Board (SORB.)

As a former sexual assault crimes prosecutor, Attorney Tripp is extremely familiar with what goes into the prosecutor’s case and what the Commonwealth needs to do to prove their case. She will aggressively defend you against these potentially life-altering charges.
