Internet Sex Crimes

Facing an internet sex crime charge can be overwhelming because it could cause long-term damage to your reputation along with the possibility of paying fines and serving jail or prison time.  These charges can be brought after accidentally downloading illicit sexual material or an illegal file.  The criminal defense team at The Bennett Law Firm, PLC understands that people are often wrongfully accused of these types of crimes and are ready to defend you.

The charges can range from the use of illegal pornographic materials to the chatroom solicitation of a minor including indecent exposure over a video stream or even Internet Child Pornography, known in Michigan as Child Sexually Abusive Material.  If you are over the age of 18 and you engage in these behaviors with a minor (under the age of 18) you could face a sex crime charge.  It is also illegal to solicit a prostitute online.

Typically, these charges fall under the following actions:

  • Downloading or streaming child pornography
  • Engaging in sexual conversations in chatrooms with a minor, or a police officer posing as a minor.
  • Viewing child pornography.
  • Solicitation of a prostitute electronically.

It can be confusing to understand the charges related to online sex crimes, so reach out to The Bennett Law Firm, PLC for a no-cost review of your case today.

Internet & Computer Crimes Review

“Sam Bennett was recommended to me by a friend that went through a DUI and was extremely satisfied with his legal representation. Following my friends recommendation, I decided to hire Sam as my attorney and it was the best decision I made. I was charged with OWI and Reckless driving on the 48th district court in West Bloomfield, which is notoriously known for being overly strict on drunk driving offenses. After meeting with Sam for the first time, I knew he was the right person for the job.
