What Constitutes “Sexual Exploitation of a Child”?
While any sex crime can result in serious consequences, the penalties of a child pornography conviction can be especially severe. Child pornography offenses are classified as sexual exploitation of a child. This type of offense can encompass various acts, including the possession, distribution, and production of child sexual abuse materials (CSAM).
Additional acts that constitute “sexual exploitation of a child” include:
- The possession of any material (digital or physical) that showcases explicit sexual conduct involving a child
- The production, promotion, or distribution of materials that involve the sexual exploitation of a child
- Encouraging, inducing, or compelling a minor to engage in explicit sexual conduct for creating exploitative material
- Selling, exchanging, distributing, or publishing any material that involves explicit sexual conduct by a minor
- The use of technology, such as the Internet, to share or disseminate materials that show a child involved in explicit sexual activities
- Engaging in, or attempting to engage in, explicit sexual conduct with a minor, including via online communication
Fortunately, our determined defense lawyers have extensive experience defending against various types of child pornography charges in Colorado Springs. Common cases we handle include:
- Possession: This involves knowingly having any material or media that contains explicit images of minors engaging in sexually explicit conduct. This includes printed materials, digital files, or any other form of media.
- Distribution: This involves the transfer of child pornography materials from one person to another. It can include distribution through email, file-sharing platforms, or physical delivery.
- Production: This involves creating or participating in the production of sexually explicit images or videos involving minors. This can also include directing, promoting, or soliciting the production of such materials.
