Stay Out of Jail!

Even if you do not visit “adult entertainment” sites, your computer could harbor pornographic images and other offensive and even illegal imagery. Yes, You!  There is a landmark court case under appeal where a teenager has been convicted of possessing child pornographic images.  The teen maintains his innocence.  His parents contacted a computer forensics specialist who has retrieved court-admissible evidence that the teen did not knowingly download the images, but that these photos had been transmitted via unsolicited emails purportedly about other topics.

It is easy to jump to the conclusion that the teen may have been curious and intentionally visited websites that included pornographic images of minors.  After all, the majority of computer forensic cases involving pornography bear this out.  In this instance, however, specialized software proved the teen’s contentions and laid the blame elsewhere.

What is so compelling about this case is that is could likely happen to anyone without their knowledge or consent.  Through email and other portals, the information superhighway not only stops at your door, it often leaves undesirable baggage behind.  Business and personal reputations built by years of hard work have been damaged as a result.
