What Is Considered Child Pornography in Texas?
In Texas, child pornography is defined as any visual depiction of a sexual performance involving a minor. This includes any image that depicts a minor engaging in sexual conduct, a minor's sexual organ, or a minor's naked buttocks. It also includes any image that depicts a nude or semi-nude minor in a sexually suggestive manner.
The severity of the crime and the penalties you face will depend on the type of child pornography you are alleged to have possessed and the amount of material you were in possession of. For example, you could face a Class C misdemeanor if you are alleged to have been in possession of fewer than three visual or printed materials that contain child pornography. However, if you are alleged to have been in possession of more than three visual or printed materials that contain child pornography, you could face a state jail felony charge.
What Are the Penalties for Possession of Child Pornography in Texas?
If you are convicted of the possession of child pornography, you could face harsh penalties, including jail time and steep fines. The exact penalties you face will depend on the type of child pornography you are alleged to have possessed and the amount of material you were in possession of. For example, you could face a Class C misdemeanor if you are alleged to have been in possession of fewer than three visual or printed materials that contain child pornography. However, if you are alleged to have been in possession of more than three visual or printed materials that contain child pornography, you could face a state jail felony charge.
In addition to jail time and fines, you could also face a lifetime sex offender registration if you are convicted of a felony. You will have to register as a sex offender for 10 years if you are convicted of a misdemeanor. You will also have to provide information about your place of residence, place of employment, and vehicle information to the state so that you can be tracked and monitored. You will have to update the state with any changes to this information within 10 days. Being a registered sex offender will have a significant impact on your life, making it difficult to find employment and housing and making it challenging to build and maintain healthy relationships.
