Greeley Sex Offense Attorney: What Does ‘Sexual Factual Basis’ Mean?
Sexual factual basis means that there is a factual basis for the plea involving unlawful sexual behavior and requires registration. This is sometimes used in plea negotiations in Weld County. A District Attorney may allow someone to plead to a crime that, at face value, does not seem like a sex offense, but will add the sexual factual basis so the sex offender registration component is necessary. For example, someone originally charged with class 4 felony Sexual Assault could plead to Second Degree Assault, as a class 4 felony with a sexual factual basis to get the sentencing agreement both the DA and defense attorney are looking for.
