Understanding Sentencing for Sex Crimes in Michigan

The severity of a sex crime charge is denoted by degree. First-degree charges are more serious than second-, third-, or fourth-degree charges, and are likely to incur a more severe penalty.

The following are the maximum sentences for sex crime convictions:

  • First degree — Life sentence, especially for a subsequent conviction or crime committed against a child aged 13 or younger
  • Second degree — Up to 15 years in prison
  • Third degree — Up to 15 years in prison
  • Fourth degree — Up to 2 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $500

If you are an adult convicted of criminal sexual conduct in the first or second degree in Michigan, you will also be sentenced to lifetime electronic monitoring.
