Possession of Internet Child Pornography

Not Guilty

Our client was charged with felony possession of child pornography and faced 2-5 years in prison and lifetime sex offender registration. He admitted to surfing for child porn. Wigell & Associates retained an internationally renowned forensic computer expert to examine his computer hard drive. At trial, our Defense Team successfully argued that images on the computer were downloaded while the computer was at a repair shop and that other images were contained in temporary and recycle bin files, casting doubt on our client's intent and knowledge of possession. He was found not guilty.

More Victories

The Internet appears to be private, but in fact, it's very public. Law enforcement at the local, state and federal level are operating undercover to entrap people who unsuspectingly take their bait.

Perhaps you were only looking at images. Perhaps someone else used your computer. Even though you are in your own home, if you have tapped into child pornography (knowingly or unknowingly), you may find law enforcement at your front door.

Don't fall victim to the public hysteria about child pornography. If you are under investigation for or have been charged with a sex crime involving kiddie porn, get prompt and powerful defense. Contact the Chicago pornography defense lawyers at Wigell & Associates.

With more than 30 years of defense experience, our criminal lawyers understand the challenges you face and the resources you need to clear your name.

Penalties for Child Pornography

Juveniles Charged with Possession of Pornography

Certainly one of the most tragic results of our country's obsession with pornography is the senseless way that young people's lives can be ruined. An 18-year-old boyfriend whose 16-year-old girlfriend sent him a topless photo can be charged with possession of child pornography. A 17-year-old who wants to look at other 17-year olds can face criminal charges in adult court.

The defense team at Wigell & Associates provides determined defense services for juveniles charged with possession or production of child porn. Contact us for immediate help.
