My question involves criminal law for the state of: Virginia Ten years ago I had sex with a minor. I had no knowledge of her age at that time. I am now a registered sex offender. The girl I had sex with has done this to other guys as well. I was told her juvenille records could not be opened. Also, I was supposed to have my record cleared after 10 years, but 2 years ago the law in Virginia changed and now I am a 'violent' sex offender. I have been in NO trouble with the law in ANY way since my offense. I have tried to better myself since then and now have an associates degree but CANNOT get a job because of my record. The officer that has to come around and check on me told me to get a lawyer and fight for myself. The captain of the police department testified for my character 10 years ago. I have law enforcement on my side but need some advice on how to get started. I have no job therefore no money. So I need all the free help I can get. Thanks
