In Michigan, sexting may seem like something between consenting teens, but the criminal consequences can be devastating and lifelong.
When images or messages involve anyone under 18, even if shared between peers, the law treats it as akin to child pornography. That means severe penalties, including felonies, possible sex offender registration, and criminal records that can follow a young person into adulthood.
If your child is facing sexting-related accusations, you need an experienced criminal sexual conduct lawyer who understands the law, and has compassion for the real-life circumstances behind those messages.
