Child Molestation

 Child molestation is any sexual conduct by any adult with any child. Generally speaking, an adult is guilty of molestation if he or she engages in any sexual conduct with any child. It may include exposing of genitals to any child, having a child touch the perpetrator’s genitals, removing child’s clothing, taking nude photographs of a child, or having a child touch the perpetrator or another child in an inappropriate fashion.

          Every citizen is entitled to know when a child molester resides near them and that is the reason Megans Law came about. It is a statute that has been enacted in many states, which requires community notification by authorities when a convicted sex offender is released from prison.
