Possession Of Child Pornography And Texas Law

Criminal Penalties If Convicted
Each count of “Possession of Child Pornography” is classified as a third-degree felony in Texas. A conviction for the offense carries a potential prison sentence of two to 10 years and a potential fine of up to $10,000.00.
Societal Penalties If Convicted
Also, if convicted, you’ll be forced to register as a sex offender once you’re freed, which comes with its own societal pressures.
Even if you aren’t convicted and are completely exonerated, you may experience social strife if word gets out that even hints at you being a sexual predator of children. Not only will you need legal representation for the criminal charges, but also a PR person if your case becomes a topic in local media. The court of public opinion has just as much of an impact on our lives as the criminal courts. Perceptions matter.
This is why having legal representation that’s experienced with serious cases is important. Aside from defending you against the state’s allegations, we’ll also defend your character against assassination attempts, which could prove crucial if your case goes to trial.
