Felony Child Pornography Defense in Colorado
For many, even the accusation of a felony child pornography crime can destroy personal and professional reputations. Convictions mean the risk of significant jail time, high fines, and sex offender registries that can follow the convicted felon for the rest of their life. Federal law defines "child pornography" as visual depictions of children (minors under the age of 18) engaged in sexual acts; it also outlaws visual depictions or photographs of children's genitalia. Courts' interpretation of what is considered pornographic varies widely from state to state and court to court; even photos or movies of fully clothed children can be considered child pornography if certain lines are crossed.
Because of the subjectivity of such determinations, it is absolutely essential that any person accused of a felony child pornography crime such as possession or sale of child pornography contact an experienced, competent, and capable child pornography crimes defense attorney as soon as possible as they find out they are under investigation or arrest. Since felony child pornography crimes are prosecuted so severely, it's essential that you protect your legal rights with the help of a lawyer who understands the law and can help construct a case to keep you out of jail.
Unfortunately, jail often isn't the worst outcome of a child pornography conviction. Registration in the sex offender database can significantly hamper your ability to work, determine where you can live, and can otherwise affect your ability to freely move in society. The stakes are high, and your Colorado Springs felony defense lawyer should understand just how to approach these sensitive issues while assembling a defense that's strong enough to protect your civil liberties and your freedoms.
