When facing charges involving the possession or distribution of illegal Internet porn, it is an understatement to say that there is a lot at stake. Under state and federal child pornography laws, if convicted, a person could face up to 20 years in prison and $100,000 fine — for each count. Additionally, people face the social stigma of lifetime registration as a sex offender. Criminal cases involving underage porn offenses demand aggressive defense from an experienced Internet sex crimes lawyer.

Experienced Defense in Michigan Child Pornography Cases

We provide comprehensive defense to clients facing child pornography charges and any related charges they may be facing, such as charges for child molestation, Internet solicitation of a minor, or other sexual exploitation of a child. Often times, charges originate from Internet porn stings or situations where an illegal Web site is overturned and IP addresses are cross-checked. In most situations, our clients are not even aware of an investigation against them until the police show up at the door to seize their computer.

It is important to remember, even if the files have been deleted, the police have forensic experts that can extract damaging evidence from your hard drive. Technology, such as the MD5 hash, enables law enforcement to extract copies of the original file. Such damaging evidence in a child pornography case could include:

• Possession of child pornography: emails, websites, pictures, or other media of child sexually abusive activity that have been viewed or are present on your hard drive or otherwise in your possession
• Distribution of child pornography: emails, websites, pictures, or other sexually exploitative material of minors that have been sent by you to others (via email, Web site, or other means)
• Other child pornography-related offenses: participating in the creation of any form of child pornography; inducing or persuading a child to participate in illegal sexually exploitative activity

Our sex crimes defense lawyers work with leading forensic experts to combat the charges against you. Because these cases often contain such extensive evidence against our client, it is necessary to examine the prosecution's evidence, evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the case, and prepare the most effective defense strategy based upon each client's situation.
