Extensive Experience Defending Against Internet Sex Crimes

Since the explosion of the Internet, law enforcement has been under a lot of pressure to crack down on allegations of internet sex crimes. I am a criminal defense attorney who has represented clients accused of committing internet sex offenses from the beginning. I have a firm understanding of the tactics law enforcement uses to develop a case against individuals under investigation for a sex offense, including internet sex crimes, such as:

• Online solicitation of a minor
• Internet exploitation of children
• Child pornography possession
• Child pornography distribution

I will evaluate every angle possible to try and develop a strong defense strategy. Part of my focus includes determining if law enforcement encouraged any illegal or questionable online activity while undercover as minors. In this case, I will pursue a defense around entrapment. I will also investigate the terms of the search warrants. If law enforcement failed to obtain a search warrant or acted outside of the search warrant's terms, I will aggressively fight for a dismissal or reduction in charges.

Developing a Strong Defense Against Charges of Child Pornography

A strong defense against child pornography depends on an accurate set of technical skills. From my law office in Spokane, Washington, I work with a network of experts who understand the logistics behind computer systems, operating systems, and computer software programs. I combine my legal knowledge with their technical skills to develop a strong defense strategy.

Part of our focus includes evaluating the data on your computer to determine when and how many pornographic images were allegedly downloaded. My investigative skills are invaluable in illustrating if someone else had access to your computer at the time the images were downloaded. I also spend time working Internet and computer experts to trace the data and determine if someone hacked into your computer and downloaded the pornographic images. I will pursue every angle possible to develop a convincing legal argument focused on protecting your freedom.
