Internet child porn attorneys in Washington

Although people use the term child pornography, the crime recognized in Washington is “possession of depictions of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct.” And those accused of this offense may face charges at both the state and federal levels.

As highly skilled criminal defense attorneys in Seattle, we help you understand the charges and possible consequences you face, including:

• Receipt and distribution of child pornography are punishable by a prison term up to 20 years.
• Possession of child pornography with intent to sell is subject to a minimum prison term of five years and a maximum of 20 years' imprisonment.
• Illegal possession of or intentional access with intent to view a book, magazine, periodical, film, videotape, computer disk or any material that contains an image of child pornography that has been mailed, shipped or transported by any means, including the Internet, carries a maximum term of 10 years' imprisonment.

Charges can multiply and penalties become more severe if other forms of sexual exploitation of minors are alleged. To protect yourself against child sexual abuse and other charges that could cost you your job, damage your family and much more, contact the Law Offices of James Newton, PLLC immediately and get your defense underway.

How we fight your child pornography charges

With the increase in funding for initiatives to reduce Internet sex crimes, investigations involving child pornography are on the rise. Being under suspicion or charged with a child porn crime seems dire, but there are ways to fight back. The experienced Seattle sex offender attorneys of James Newton Law examine all records and procedures leading to your charges to identify:

• Evidence collected through an illegal Internet sting, in which a federal investigator posed as a minor in an Internet chat room
• Illegal search and seizure of your personal computer by the police or FBI
• Cases built around pop-up ads or menus that unexpectedly filled your monitor screen with obscene or sexually explicit images
• A failed attempt to destroy a pornographic image of a minor by deleting it as soon as it appeared
• Others who may have had access to a hard drive at your place of employment where pictures were found

Child porn penalties may get you 20 years in jail. Don’t risk your future. We are ready to protect your rights against child pornography and all related charges.
