Kanata Child Porn Defence Lawyers

Child pornography charges may involve the possession, distribution, production or promotion of any obscene pictures or video involving minors engaging in sexually explicit content. This could include cases involving two or three photographs to thousands of online photos. A person who is 21 and takes a naked picture of a 16-year-old boyfriend or girlfriend could also face these charges.

In many cases, child pornography charges stem from police stings where sites are monitored by law enforcement. Police will generally seize the computer of the accused to view the files and sites that have been accessed. Our firm will often work with computer experts to determine how the files were accessed, who accessed them and whether there was intent to commit a crime. We will utilize our experience and resources to establish the most effective defence strategy based on the circumstances of your situation.

While the prospect of jail time and a lifetime of registration on the sex offender registry are frightening, the social persecution from friends, family and society may be just as daunting. Get in touch with us to discuss your case.
