PRACTICE AREAS

Possession of child pornography is not permissible in any state. However, in some cases, people are wrongfully accused of possessing child pornography. This may occur when the accused person is not the owner of the material in question or wasn’t aware of the material’s nature.

When you are accused of possession of child pornography, the possible consequences are severe, so it’s wise to hire an experienced North Texas Child Pornography Lawyer to help you with your defense.

Texas Laws

According to Texas Penal Code Section 43.26, you may be guilty of possession of child pornography if you intentionally obtain or possess visual material that includes images of a child who is younger than 18 (at the time the image was made) and is engaging in a sexual act. In order to be convicted of this offense, you must have known that the child in the images was underage.

If you are found guilty of possession of child pornography, a felony of the third degree will typically appear on your record, and you will face the associated penalties. If the court finds that you promoted or planned to promote the material you possessed, you may be convicted of a second degree felony instead, which carries harsher penalties.
