SEX CRIMES, COMPUTER EVIDENCE AND CRIMINAL DEFENSE

On Behalf of | Jan 23, 2013 | Criminal Law

CRIMINAL LAW LEGAL HELP IN NEW JERSEY SINCE 1985

Alleged criminal behavior has in some ways become easier to detect due to the personal computer. Yet law enforcement officials still face serious challenges to prosecuting sex crimes using computer-related evidence. For instance:

  • Have you been accused of soliciting a minor using a computer or a cell phone? Officers sometimes make an arrest before contact between parties even occurs.
  • Have you been charged with downloading, disseminating or possessing child pornography? Prosecutors may face an uphill battle in proving that you downloaded the images, or that the images belong to you, or that the computer belongs to you or that you had use of the computer.
  • Have you been accused of soliciting or engaging in prostitution using a computer? Law enforcement officials may have lacked the right to seize your computer.

If you face a sex crime charge that involved the Internet or a computer, contact the criminal defense attorneys of The Law Office of Mallon & Tranger. Registration with the sex offenders’ registry, a prison sentence or findings of a Megan’s Law violation may result from a conviction. We can work to protect your rights, future and freedom by questioning police officers’ handling of your case.

Were police tipped off? We can question motives and credibility. Has your computer been seized as evidence? We can question the validity of data recovery methodology. Did police officers enter your home? We can question whether they had probable cause to do so.
