Plano Sting Operation Defense Lawyer
Solicitation of a minor almost always involves a sting operation set up by local police or federal authorities. Often, these operations tip the scales toward entrapment, as individuals using their personal computers in their own homes are not aware they are chatting with minors or are enticed to do so, with no criminal intent to solicit. However, claiming entrapment for breaking the law is never a valid defense.
If you have been charged with solicitation of a minor in Collin County or any community in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, talk to a sex crimes defense attorney at The Shapiro Law Firm as soon as possible. Time is important. Your defense lawyer will need every advantage to suppress illegal evidence collected by the police and prosecutors.
What constitutes solicitation?
It is incorrect to believe that a person must actually appear at a pre-arranged meeting location to be charged with solicitation for sex. In fact, you can be charged with solicitation of a minor or solicitation for sex while still sitting at your home computer participating in a chat room.
