The Serious Nature of Internet Sex Crimes
Massachusetts law officials, along with federal law enforcement officers, run hundreds of sting operations by entering chatrooms and posing as purveyors of illicit child pornography. They also will pose as minor children that are interested in having sex with adults. Law enforcement officers posing as minors may even ask if they can send pornographic images or ask adults to send them pictures. Law enforcement officers may even pose as minors interested in having sex with an adult. Once an adult sends the illegal images or the adult agrees to meet with someone whom they believe is a minor, investigators record their IP address and begin an investigation.
Internet sex crimes involve complicated and technical issues to be thoroughly investigated by an experienced criminal defense attorney. Two issues that we will initially investigate include whether or not there are other users of the computer in question and the nature of the conduct by investigators. With an experienced criminal defense attorney, you may be able to put the prosecution on the defensive by pointing out groundless assumptions, questionable actions performed by law enforcement and inappropriate circumstantial evidence.
