What are the Penalties for Child Pornography in California? 

Child pornography is a severe crime in California, and those caught possessing, manufacturing, distributing, or creating it may face serious consequences. The state of California treats these crimes differently, and prosecutors will pursue the most serious charges against you based on the specifics of your case. Those charges may include possession of child pornography, a felony crime, or the production or distribution of child pornography, which are sex crimes.

Those convicted of child pornography crimes may face:

  • Jail time
  • Fines
  • Sex offender registration
  • Lifetime supervision

Child pornography crimes are taken very seriously by law enforcement, and those charged with these crimes are often presumed guilty in the court of public opinion. Unfortunately, this presumption of guilt may lead to a conviction, which can have lasting consequences. If you are facing charges of child pornography, you need an attorney who will fight for your rights and ensure your side of the story is heard.

    Most criminal cases resolve through plea deals. A plea bargain allows you to accept the penalty for a lesser offense, often keeping more serious charges off your record. Whether a plea will benefit you depends on your situation, but no one should accept a plea deal from someone who is not guilty of the crime.

    Having a lawyer to counsel you on your best options is critical if you hope to avoid agreeing to a deal that is not in your best interests.
