Inappropriate Touching Defense Attorney in Media, PA Handling Sensitive Allegations in Delaware County, Montgomery County, Chester County, and Throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania
Inappropriate touching is itself not a crime in Pennsylvania. Instead, “inappropriate touching" is a term often used in conjunction with sexual assault, rape, or child molestation charges to describe illegal contact that is sexual in nature. Indecent Assault is also a crime in which inappropriate touching is an element, but it also requires that the touching be for sexual gratification.
Inappropriate touching, or inappropriate contact, is often used to describe contact that is:
- Unwanted sexual intercourse or other sexual acts
- Unwanted touching of intimate areas of another’s body, such as the breasts or buttocks
- Unwanted touching of non-intimate areas of another’s body, depending on the circumstances
- Gestures or acts that could be interpreted as sexual solicitation
- Touching that is inappropriate based on relationship, for example, sexual touching involving an adult and a child
