Statutory Rape: Texas law defines statutory rape as illegal sexual activity with a child under the age of 17. In addition, there are laws that specify age restrictions for sexual relations between a minor and a person of authority (i.e. teacher, coach, tutor, pastor, police officer, etc.). If a child is under the age of 14, the felony (and fine) is increased dramatically. These laws can vary and are generally case specific. Contact a Dallas criminal lawyer for help with your specific situation. Statutory rape charges can be raised by the state, but are most often raised by the parents of the victim.

Date Rape: Date rape is defined as forcible sexual intercourse during a voluntary social engagement in which a person resists the sexual advances of the other party and does not intend to submit.

Prostitution, Solicitation, and Pandering: Prostitution can be considered a misdemeanor or a felony depending on the specific offense. It is defined as the sale of sexual services (oral sex, sexual intercourse, etc.) for money.
