True or False Questions Related to Issues Involving Computer Sex Crimes1. Only those people who actually solicited a live person on a computer for sex have anything to worry about if contacted by police or charged by the prosecutor. False! A few years ago Kansas passed a new law as part of the Jessica's law package that makes it a serious felony to solicit even a fictitious person. Only an attorney experienced in handling sex crimes can properly assist someone being charged or investigated for solicitation on the internet. Scott Toth has twenty years of experience handling solicitation cases whether it is intent or computer driven or person to person. 2. What a person does or views on their computer is a private matter and is no concern and is no concern to the police or prosecutors. False! With the advent of internet chat rooms, emails and file sharing software the police and prosecutors are watching. Law enforcement has sophisticated technology which can track what information personal computers share with each other. When an unsuspecting persons personal computer becomes a target, then, serious criminal charges such as internet solicitation, electronic solicitation, possession or distribution of child pornography, or solicitation to commit other sex crimes can result. 3. The penalties for those individuals charged with internet or computer related sex crimes are severe. True! Both at the State and Federal levels there are mandatory minimum prison sentences depending on the crime. In some cases these sentences are treated the same as certain types of murder. Scott Toth knows and understands how serious the implications are. 4. People being investigated or charged with internet or electronic solicitation or possession or distribution of certain types of pornography always get more favorable treatment by the system if they cooperate with law enforcement. False! In many cases the opposite is true. When a person finds themselves in that position they need the advice that only an experienced sex crime trial attorney can give them. 5. If a person is caught in an internet sting then there is very little even the best sex crimes attorney can do. False! While it is true that internet and computer sex crime cases are as serious as criminal cases get, a proven, effective and experienced trial attorney like Scott Toth can navigate the treacherous waters use of technological, knowledge of legal strategies and proven trial effectiveness. |
