This course delivers a clear-eyed examination of federal child pornography offenses, focusing on how these cases are charged, evaluated, and sentenced in federal court. The approach is straightforward and unsentimental—because these cases carry some of the most severe consequences in the federal system, and there is no room for guesswork.


Participants will break down the distinctions between possession, receipt, distribution, and production, and how charging decisions dramatically affect sentencing exposure. The course explains how digital evidence, devices, and online conduct form the backbone of federal cases and how those facts drive outcomes from indictment through sentencing.
