NOT CHARGED | FURNISHING PORNOGRAPHY TO A MINOR (DMC No. 2967) State v. Mr. S.: Mr. S. was having a BBQ at his house with a woman he used to date. Various 10 year old boys were also at the BBQ. As he was pulling up a video game site for the kids, some photos came up from pornographic websites. The woman saw this, and reported it to the police approximately 2 months later, after their relationship had fallen apart. We were able to sit down with the Detective and explain this was inadvertent on our client’s part. In addition, we spoke with the prosecutor at the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office, who agreed to “turn down” the charges. Mr. S.’s computer was then returned to him from police evidence. Had Mr. S. been charged with these allegations, he would have faced lifetime registration as a sex offender.
