POSSESSION AND
DISTRIBUTION OF CHILD PORNOGRAPHY,
INTERNET PORNOGRAPHY, & OTHER OBSCENE
MATERIALS
Internet sex crimes are now vigorously
prosecuted. Downloading child pornography
or other obscene materials can result
in prosecution by both the state and
federal authorities. In some cases,
individuals who have simply visited
internet sites displaying illegal content
have faced scrutiny and prosecution.
Child Pornography
The simple possession of magazine
child pornography will also be forcefully
prosecuted. When pornography includes
content which could picture or describe
a minor, then the crime becomes "child
pornography". Defending a child
pornography case requires an experienced
attorney with familiarity in child
pornography defense. At WILL & WILL,
LLP, our lawyers have handled all types
of sex offenses that have minors involved.
If you are being charged with possession
of child pornography or any related
offense, call or fill out our online
contact form now.
Other Pornography
The printing, publication, sale and
distribution of "hard core" pornography
can be charged as either a misdemeanor
or felony offense. Since determining
what is “pornography” and what is "soft
core" vs. "hard core" are
subjective questions to judges, juries
and law enforcement officials, it is
difficult to define. Furthermore, past
case law has been unable to clearly
define many of these terms and thus,
have not given the courts clear examples
to follow. If you are being charged
with an adult-related pornography offense,
you need a knowledgeable and experienced
lawyer to review the facts of your
case and discuss viable defenses with
you. Call WILL & WILL, LLP or fill
out our online contact form for a free
consultation with one of our sex crimes
attorneys.
