Topic: - Domestic Violence
Sex Assault is a crime in Colorado that can often times lead to lifelong supervision and stigma.

As the law stands right now, anyone convicted of any type of domestic violence will be required to complete thirty-six weeks of domestic violence classes. This is an arduous process, but it is nothing compared to what happen to some individuals if the new guidelines become law.
