Minneapolis child pornography defense lawyer Joshua London has the experience necessary to mount an aggressive legal defense on your behalf. Mr. London does not retreat from the courtroom, and will fight to have your charges dismissed or reduced. Why is this so important? There are severe consequences that result from these accusations.
Minnesota outlaws the possession of any pornographic material that involves children. The punishment can be five years in prison and up to $5,000 in fines. Distributing these images is a felony and can amount to a seven-year prison sentence and up to $10,000 in fines. If you actually create this content, in Minnesota you are looking at a decade in prison and $20,000 in fines. When images are distributed online and from one state to another, child pornography may be considered a federal offense. Federal penalties are often even more severe.
A child pornography conviction will require you to register as a sex offender. Your private information and a photograph will be published in an online database that can be accessed by the public.
There are several strategies that can be used to mount an effective defense. It is imperative that we know how a search warrant was executed or how the pornographic images were discovered by law enforcement. Was there evidence that the police carried out entrapment?
