Not Your Grandparents' Generation
Unfortunately, advances in modern technology and the advent of modern communication devices have made it much easier to inadvertently engage in criminal sexual conduct. No longer are sex crimes only committed by "bad guys" lurking in dark alleys; rather, the teenager next door could be considered guilty merely by having a nude picture of his girlfriend on his cell phone.
In fact, teenagers are more frequently finding themselves on the wrong side of the law for involvement in sex crimes. From e-mail to instant messaging, texting to "sexting", many young people are freely exchanging nude or suggestive photographs of themselves and others. Though this may seem like foolish, yet harmless activity, it can still have life-altering consequences.
We Protect Reputations
Those in possession of photographs of unclothed minors can be charged with possession of child pornography and those sending the pictures can be charged with promotion. In many cases, these activities are charged as federal felonies with penalties of mandatory incarceration and registration as a sex offender. In addition, sexually active teenagers may face charges of statutory rape if one of the partners is below the legal age of consent.
