Representation for Child Pornography Charges in Louisiana

Criminal sexual offenses involving children are among the most severe offenses in Louisiana. If you have been charged with child pornography or molestation, you can face aggressive prosecution by the state or federal government depending on the specifics of your case. Charges can be brought for production, distribution or possession of child pornography. You need a determined child pornography defense attorney in Louisiana to help you fight the charges against you.

Federal child pornography charges can be brought if the pornography was acquired or distributed via internet or mail. Federal prosecutors have more power and resources than state prosecutors, but they must still prove you knowingly downloaded, viewed, and/ or saved child pornography to have a strong case against you.

Defenses to Child Molestation and Pornography Charges

When children are involved in a criminal case, juries typically show extreme sympathy toward child victims. In addition, children are easily manipulated to fib about situations that never occurred. At times, children may be persuaded by an adult to say that another adult molested them. At other times, adults who interact heavily with children as part of their jobs, such as teachers, pastors, child care workers, and coaches, are falsely accused of molestation and other sex crimes against children. An experienced attorney will uncover all the facts surrounding your case to develop a strong defense to these charges to successfully negotiate a plea or dismissal of charges or try the case before a judge or jury.

Possible Penalties for Child Porn in Louisiana

Possessing, distributing, or producing child pornography is a serious felony offense. If you are convicted, you could face a mandatory minimum prison term of five years. Longer prison sentences as well as steep fines are possible depending on the circumstances of the case. Louisiana and the federal government treat sex crimes involving minors extremely seriously; as a result, you will be obligated to register as a sex offender upon a conviction, from fifteen years to life, depending on the charge.
