Being in college does not give you a free pass in the eyes of the criminal justice system. It does not mean that the case will only be under the jurisdiction of the college. When the police are informed about an alleged sexual assault or another sex crime committed on campus at a Phoenix college, they will act as they would when called to apprehend any other suspect. This means you will most likely get arrested.
You will be taken into police custody, fingerprinted and your mugshots will be taken. You may then be held on bail or released while you await your first court hearing, known as the arraignment. It is important to contact a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible if you get arrested for sexual assault on a college campus. Your lawyer can help you with the early stages of your case, such as which plea to enter at your arraignment.
