Sexual assault, usually called "aggravated sexual assault" in Utah, is a secondary charge.
That means it's tied to another charge, such as rape, attempted rape, or some other sexual crime.
As a secondary charge, most people tend to ignore it as being less important than the primary charge-whatever crime allegedly provided the source of the sexual assault-but that can be a fatal mistake.
While every form of sexual crime can result in a prison sentence, sexual assault raises the stakes substantially by adding 5 years or more to the minimum sentence for the crime.

If you or a loved one is facing sexual abuse charges in Utah, it is essential to contact legal representation.
A sexual abuse conviction can not only come with harsh prison sentences, community service, rehabilitation and fines, but it can also cause dramatic changes in your life that will stay with you forever.
Those convicted of sexual abuse or child sexual abuse will be required to register as a sex offender sometimes for life.
This information can easily be found by the public and can result in ostracization from the community as well as difficulty finding employment.

There are two forms of sexual abuse in Utah.
The first is called Forcible Sexual Abuse and deals with any sexual abuse suffered by someone over the age of 14.
The other is Sexual Abuse of a Child and deals with the sexual abuse of anyone under the age of 14.
Any form of unwanted sexual contact short of rape can result in accusations of sexual abuse.
Both forms carry mandatory minimum sentences and can result in life imprisonment.
Even if you avoid a life sentence, you can still find yourself permanently part of the sex offender registry, along with all of the limitations, possible employment issues and hassle that brings.
