What Constitutes a Child Pornography Offense?
In Pennsylvania, child pornography charges often involve the possession, distribution, or production of sexually explicit material involving minors. Depending on the number of files and the nature of the content, you could face multiple felony counts and years in prison.
Common charges include:
- Possession of child pornography (18 Pa.C.S. § 6312)
- Dissemination of child pornography
- Use of a computer to view or share explicit content
- Sexual abuse of children
Defending child pornography cases requires tailored legal strategies, as every case is unique. These strategies may include challenging the legality of searches or seizures, proving lack of knowledge or intent, exposing unreliable forensic or digital evidence, or negotiating for reduced charges when appropriate.
