Child Pornography

The United States Attorney Office has expanded the prosecution of child pornographic cases over the past several years. Specifically, the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan in Detroit. From possession of child pornography to the distribution of child pornography, the indictments are increasing as are the sentences issued by the courts. Our office can help facilitate a defense for anyone indicted with a child pornography related charge. Whether there is an entrapment defense, a first amendment defense, or simply a mistake related to computer use.

State prosecutions in South Carolina, Florida and Georgia have increased and many states have amended their child pornography laws to reflect the apparent increase with the onset of the internet.

Child Pornographic Video

Many federal and state indictments for child pornography are from computer use. There are several federal websites set up for catching anyone interested in viewing child pornography, buying child pornography or trading child pornography. The United States Sentencing guidelines provide for very serious enhancements depending on the types of images one has or trades for on the internet. Any video of child pornography counts as 75 still images.

The federal and state governments have computer experts that will examine any computers to determine any erased content. Any child pornographic image will be used as a basis for a state or federal indictment.

It is never too soon or to late to get a criminal defense attorney involved in your case. Experience in this type of case is critical. The laws related to child pornographic materials are changing. The Adam Walsh Act was the most recent federal change. The Act covers many areas related to children. We can defend you, a friend or family member.
