It is very easy to be falsely accused of Columbia child abuse or lewd acts on a child, but it is exceptionally difficult to be exonerated in court. Even though 50-60% of molestation or abuse charges are false, more of these trials end in the wrongful conviction of the innocent than any other type of Columbia SC criminal case. With widespread media attention often causing a state of hysteria, this highly emotional charge tends to destroy the ability of the system to handle such cases objectively.
Were You Arrested for Columbia Child Abuse?
In family situations, frustration can suddenly turn to anger, and anger can sometimes turn into physical violence against a child. The result can be an arrest for child abuse and the need for a Columbia child abuse attorney. More than 3 million children are reported as neglected or abused in the U.S. every year. Most of the abuse is physical or psychological. Three-fourths of those held responsible are parents.
There are strict reporting laws for child abuse, assault, and neglect in Columbia. Teachers, day care workers, healthcare workers, and others who work with children are required to report signs of Columbia child abuse, Columbia assault, or neglect.
