Internet Sex Crimes
With more widespread access to the internet, it has become far easier to use the internet to engage in criminal activity, including sex crimes. The state of Tennessee considered internet sex crimes to be especially critical to enforce, since internet sex crimes can easily target children. If you have been charged with an internet sex crime, time is not on your side. You are facing potentially life-altering consequences, and you deserve an aggressive, experienced defense from a Murfreesboro sex crimes defense lawyer.
What is considered an internet sex crime?
There are a number of online actions that can result in an internet sex crime charge. If you are accused of one of these crimes, it is extremely important that your defense be well-versed in internet culture, communications, and digital technology.
Internet sex crimes may include:
- Solicitation of a minor
- Prostitution or solicitation of a prostitute
- Child pornography
- Child molestation
- Posting of explicit images without permission, or “revenge porn”
- Child abuse
Because minors are often the victim of internet sex crimes, the state of Tennessee is particularly strict when it comes to enforcing these laws. If you are charged with an internet sex crime, it is highly likely that the prosecution will ruthlessly pursue the highest available sentences for your conviction.

Penalties for internet sex crimes in Tennessee
The specific penalty you potentially will receive can vary greatly, depending on the specifics of your particular offense. Crimes involving children, deadly weapons, or threats frequently are subject to more serious penalties. It is highly likely that you will be required to register as a sex offender for a considerable length of time as part of your sentence.
Being convicted of a sex crime can have far more consequences than just the legal penalties. Often those convicted of sex crimes suffer damage to their reputation and relationships. You also may find your education, housing, career, and community involvement opportunities to be severely limited by your conviction. Isolation is a significant factor for those charged with a sex crime, which is why it is crucial to obtain driven, knowledgeable legal counsel and build an effective defense.
