What Is Considered Child Enticement

Consequences for Child Enticement in Cincinnati
If a person is charged with enticing, soliciting, or luring a child to accompany them in any manner (without parental or guardian permission), they can be up against serious criminal penalties. Under the state’s child enticement law, this offense is a first-degree misdemeanor and may accompany other more serious offenses.
- You may face the following penalties if accused:
- As long as six months in jail; or
- A full year in prison if you have prior charges
- Up to thousands of dollars in fines
Should you have a previous record of similar criminal convictions under this section—such as kidnapping, abduction, etc.—your offense may be increased to a fifth-degree felony, carrying more extensive penalties.
