San Jose Lawyer Defends People Charged with Child Pornography Possession
Child pornography cases, as difficult as they are, may have viable defenses. With the increased importance of prosecuting these cases, they seem to have become this generation's witch-hunt, for a variety of reasons:
- Innocent defendants may not have been aware that child pornography had been downloaded onto their computers.
- Images on pornography Web sites may be doctored, making it very difficult to determine the age of “persons under 18.”
- Conviction for child porn possession and/or distributing pornographic images may send a person to prison for a very long time.
If you have reason to believe you are under investigation for child pornography or if you have already been arrested or charged for possessing child pornography, contact Brian Madden of Madden & Redding in San Jose. He has handled cases at both the state and federal levels.
Criminal defense attorney Brian Madden uses a skillful investigator who gathers facts and evidence. Other experts who may work on our clients' cases include psychologists, psychiatrists and computer forensic specialists. He understands the defenses that work for these types of cases.
It is essential to discuss your situation with an attorney before participating in any interviews with the police. If the police confiscate your computer and locate pornographic images of children on it, they still don't have a case until they can prove you knew it was there. It is important to know your rights and avoid potentially damaging interactions with the police.
