Under federal law, child pornography is anything depicting a child engaging in sexually explicit conduct. Merely possessing child pornography, either physically or on a computer server, can expose a person to federal prosecution and prison. Depending on the circumstances, child pornography cases may also involve allegations of Sexual Exploitation of a Child, Enticement of a Child, or Internet Luring.
Complex federal child pornography cases may involve the possession, distribution, or trading of thousands of images and videos depicting minors. However, visiting the wrong web-site may also expose a person to federal prosecution. Records of websites visited are easily accessible by the government, and even an unintentional visit can expose one to child pornography charges.
Defending child pornography cases involves a complex understanding of the constitutional issues involved in surveillance and seizing property, such as computers and servers. In addition, an experienced Denver criminal defense attorney can investigate issues such as the lack of intent to possess or lack of proof of possession.
