Facing Accusations or Charges of Unlawful Disclosure of Intimate Visual Material?
The digital age has simplified the sharing of personal moments but has also introduced new legal challenges. Among these is the offense commonly referred to as "Revenge Porn," a serious misdemeanor or felony in Texas, depending on the circumstances. Recognizing the gravity of these allegations is crucial, as they can swiftly impact lives and futures. At Barbieri Law Firm, we bring a deep understanding of the nuanced Revenge Porn laws in Texas, combined with a history of dedicated defense in sex offense cases.
Understanding Revenge Porn in Texas
Texas law defines Revenge Porn, or the prohibited disclosure of intimate visual material, as sharing content that depicts another individual without their consent, focusing specifically on images that include nudity or sexual activity. This offense, established under Texas Penal Code § 21.16, emphasizes the non-consenting person’s expectation of privacy and the harm caused by such disclosure. With laws evolving to address these digital violations, it becomes imperative to align with a legal team proficient in navigating both the technological and legal aspects of these cases.
