Tennessee Sex Crime Punishments—Sentencing
In the state of Tennessee, sex crime punishments are governed by state and federal sentencing guidelines. Because of society's disdain for sex offenses, especially sex offenses involving minors or children, the punishments are harsh.
If you are convicted of a sex crime, chances are that you are looking at serious jail time, often without the benefit of parole.
To make matters worse, often you are charged with several offenses. If the judge sentences you to serve your sentences consecutively (one sentence doesn't start until the preceding sentence ends), then you could virtually end up serving a life sentence (even for a first offense).
