A New Legal Frontier

For many people, the Internet has become an integral part of life, and it's easy to overlook the fact that the Internet is still a relatively new phenomenon. The laws regarding Internet sex crimes are also rather new. Often, people who are using the Internet are not aware that they are committing a crime. Some of the more common Internet sex crimes include:

• Child pornography on the Internet (production, possession, and/or distribution)
• Solicitation of a minor through a chat room
• Attempted sexual contact with a minor
• Web cam offenses
• Endangering the welfare of a child
• Stalking and related offenses

Laws in all 50 states as well as various federal laws include sections on Internet sex crimes, outlining severe criminal penalties that can include prison time, heavy fines, mandatory sex offender registration, and more.
