Possession Of Child Pornography

Possession of child pornography in Virginia is a crime that can carry prison sentences and long-term registration as a sex offender. A conviction can change your life for years to come.

Whether a crime is charged as a state or federal offense, possession of child pornography involves downloading, possessing or transmitting explicit images of minors, typically through the Internet. In some cases, an image may be downloaded accidentally, while other cases involve storage of many images on a computer. The severity of the charges and the penalties depends on the volume of images, as well as on other factors.
