Possession of Child Pornography

People of all ages and in all walks of life have been charged with possession of child pornography. Make no mistake about it, the charges are serious and can have a devastating effect on your freedom and reputation, as well as career and educational opportunities.

Do not hesitate if you have been charged with child pornography. Contact an attorney experienced with sex crime cases. At the Tucker Arensberg law firm office in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, we routinely handle sex crime cases.

Do not talk to police or prosecutors first. Talk to an attorney who is concerned about you before speaking with the police or prosecutor. If your computer shows evidence of downloads, possession, or distribution of child pornography, talk to a sex crime defense lawyer about how this happened and what your options are.

Child porn pictures and video clips are illegal. If your computer or cell phone was used in any way for downloads, or dissemination of child pornography, you need an attorney who has experience with the law and can protect your rights.

Texting child porn — or sexting — is illegal. If you have — even as a joke — sent or passed along pornographic pictures, you could be charged with a criminal offense. Underage teens who take and send pornographic images and anyone who resends or posts those images on the internet can be charged with a sex crime.

Sex crimes should be taken very seriously. An experienced attorney can explain the law and work with you to protect your rights and interests. Contact us for a free consultation.
