"Sexting" and Teenage Nude-Photo File Sharing in Dallas, Texas
Even if you child or teenager is involved in a preliminary investigation, it can potentially cloud your child's future. That's why it's critical to seek the help of a skilled attorney if your child is involved in a child pornography or "sexting" investigation in any way.
Charging teens under child pornography statutes twists the original intent of these laws and seeks to punish adolescents for natural curiosity. Just the sending of one nude photo could land your child in juvenile jail and the possibility of a lifetime criminal record or sex offender label.
Here are several examples and cases, both locally and on the national level that reflect how serious this problem has become and how some law enforcement agencies fail to see the difference between adults how possess and traffic in 'child pornography' and children who use modern technology to 'flirt' with each other:
