Child pornography expert witnesses may provide reports concerning child sexual assault, cyberpornography, and sexual exploitation, as well as related matters. Attorneys at Shouse Law Group write:
“California’s laws prohibiting child pornography or the “sexual exploitation of a child” (often viewed as a form of child abuse) are typically felonies under Penal Code 311.” Charges may be filed on the state or federal level and conviction brings “heavy fines, incarceration, and, perhaps the most devastating penalty of all, Penal Code 290 registration as a sex offender.”
