Internet Crimes

Being accused of internet crimes is enough to ruin your reputation. Without warning, law enforcement can raid your home or business to seize computers, hard drives, cell phones, flash drives, smartphones and any other electronic device that has the ability to store digital images or videos. Investigations can go on for months, during such time you will have no idea if charges will ever be brought against you. It is imperative that you contact an experienced lawyer immediately. Too often, those who have been contacted by law enforcement, or who have had their property confiscated, fail to contact counsel out of embarrassment. This is a mistake. You need someone on your side.

Possession, distribution and manufacturing of photographs or videos of children engaged in sexual acts are incredibly serious felonies. Each individual depiction or image constitutes a separate charge, and in Oklahoma and knowingly possessing, distributing and manufacturing child pornography is punishable by up to 20 years in prison and you will be required to register as a sex offender. Cases that involve possession of more than 100 images can carry a sentence of life. Not every attorney is capable of managing an internet crimes criminal case, you need an experienced attorney who knows what they are doing.
