Were You Sexually Assaulted Or Sexually Abused?
Many people fail to understand that sexual abuse and sexual assault are two different violations and carry different weights in the eyes of the legal system. Sexual assault is seen as the more physically harmful and severe offense because of the injuries the victims typically suffer. Severe soft tissue injuries, damage to reproductive organs, and broken bones are not uncommon among sexual assault victims. In addition, many face lifelong impacts due to unwanted pregnancies or sexually transmitted diseases.
Because of the brutality of these incidents and the potential for costly medical care to be required, the settlement amount for a sexual assault victim is often greater than that received by a sexual abuse victim. But it will take longer for a Tehama County Juvenile Detention Facility sexual assault case to settle. However, victims must understand that the Normandie Law Firm team will never stop working until their clients have the compensation they deserve for the sexual assault they endured. Acts that are classified as sexual assault include:
- Oral copulation
- Sodomy
- Rape
- Any form of sexual penetration other than intercourse
- Making a minor participate in prostitution
- Forcing a minor to take part in pornography
The acts of sexual abuse are almost always less violent than sexual assault, but they still leave emotional scars and trauma for the victim to carry. Feelings of shame, anger, and humiliation can lead to a higher instance of addiction and other harmful behaviors. Acts considered sexual abuse include but are not limited to:
- Making lewd or sexual comments to a minor
- Forcing a minor to sexually touch or fondle their abuser, particularly in the groin area, buttocks, breasts, or genitals
- Unwanted touching of a minor in private areas mainly, but also any unwanted touching with a sexual connotation
- Making a minor masturbate while their abuser watches
- Forcing a minor to watch their abuser masturbate
It is also critical to understand that as a minor, the victim cannot provide consent for any acts of sex. Therefore, all of these violations are classified as forced sex acts against a minor and can result in more significant settlements.
