Aggressive, Knowledgeable Defense
Criminal defense lawyer Kevin D. Camp handles a wide variety of Internet crimes cases in state and federal court:
- E-mail threats and harassment
- "Cyber stalking"
- Credit card fraud
- Identity theft
- Enticement of a child (solicitation of a minor)
- Possession or sale of child pornography
Often, one of the keys to an effective defense in an Internet crime is to investigate how the police obtained their evidence. Did they have a proper search warrant? Did they hack into your computer? Did they entrap you into committing a crime? We have a firm grasp of constitutional law and we will look at every aspect of the evidence being used against you.
A common component of child pornography cases is what proof the prosecution has that any pornographic pictures were actually of children — or even that the pictures were seen by the person charged with the crime. Often, pornographic pictures purported to be of teens actually feature women of legal age. Sometimes software is used to make them appear younger. Even if the accused person thought they were looking at or soliciting a minor, no crime has necessarily been committed. We will focus on every detail of the prosecution's case and force them to prove each and every element of the crime.
Protecting Your Reputation
We are very conscious that allegations that you committed an Internet crime can severely damage your reputation. Possession of child porn and child enticement are sex crimes that are viewed by many in the community as particularly heinous. Likewise, crimes involving fraud can destroy your good name. We will always work hard to protect your reputation, your ability to get a job, housing and other opportunities in the future.
The definition of Internet crime is constantly expanding, which puts many people at risk of violating new laws with little warning. At the same time, when laws are new, they are often open to challenge. Experience in this field of law is essential to doing so.
