There are many cases involving the possession of child pornography and sexual assault involving children every year. There are many things that can lead up to a case like this. Not all of them are something that was expected either.
Every case will be completely different when it comes to a case like this. Finding an attorney to represent the case can be difficult sometimes. This is something that is very important for the person that is accused of such a case.
Everybody will choose someone different to represent them. They want someone who has experience in dealing with cases like this. Not everybody has this experience.
Their client’s past will have a big impact on the type of plea or whether or not charges can be dropped. There are many things that a court system is going to be looking at regarding this type of thing. They will confiscate all of the pictures. If a computer or another device was used to store them, they will be taken as well.
Not every lawyer is good at fighting this type of case though. There are many different things that have to be looked at. How the pictures were obtained is also something that will be checked out.
Everybody knows that child pornography is illegal to have. People will do this anyways. Some people end up getting involved with someone who has the pictures. This causes problems for them as well.
A lawyer is going to look at each case separately and figure out the best way to get results. Sometimes, there is going to be jail time, court costs, fines and attorney fees that have to be paid even if the person is sitting in jail. Sometimes, there are ways to waive those fees until a later date.
Some attorneys waive them until the case is all done with. There are many of them that will represent either side. Some people need to have someone to help them ensure that the person gets convicted too.
Just having a picture does not mean that a child was assaulted in any way. People can obtain pictures from having somebody emailing or texting them. If they were on that phone or computer, then they can be obtained by the labs that law enforcement uses.
There are strict laws regarding these violations. They are something that some judges will rule stricter on than others. When the lawyers are able to convince the judge that the person has changed or did not commit the crime in the first place, they will get a lesser sentence or be able to get the charges dropped.
Just because a computer is in someone’s possession does not mean that it is necessarily their computer. It raises concern for law enforcement though. They will have to take the steps to ensure that they are getting the proper information and make sure that it is recorded accurately.
Statements, evidence and more will be used during the sentencing. Every one of these cases will be different. The number of children involved makes a big difference too.
This sex crime can cause the person convicted to be charged with long sentences in prison and cause other problems in their life. Many of their friends will avoid them and quit talking to them. They can also have trouble finding a job afterwards.
There are many things that a case like this can affect. Possession of child pornography is a crime in itself. It does not have to be something that was taken by the person that is convicted. It can be transferred to other people through the internet or other media devices.
