This is Burges McCowan. In this video, I’m going to talk about child pornography laws in Arizona.
Recently, there was a case in New York where sixty people were arrested for child pornography on a peer-to-peer network. If you’re charged with child pornography in Arizona, you’re looking at ten years per image minimum and each image is consecutive to the other which means if they charge ten, you’re looking at a hundred years minimum. That’s a hundred years in prison. Basically, the rest of your life. They treat it very seriously in Arizona.
If you’re looking at a charge like child pornography, you need to act quickly. The police will probably have a warrant and they will search your computer and get whatever they have on there but don’t fully despair. There are some defenses available to you. They involve computer forensics and you need an attorney that’s familiar with those.
I’ve actually done hours and hours of training on computer forensics for these type of cases. I used to be a prosecutor in this field so I have the experience that you need for defending these cases and you’re definitely going to need someone that’s experienced with this type of charge. It’s very unique and it’s treated very seriously by the prosecutors so you need someone that can treat it very seriously in your defense.
I’m one of those people. If you or a family member has been charged with child pornography, give me a call. I offer free consultations and I can help.
