Freedom Reputation Job Rights

The Internet can feel like a pretty secure place for you to take care of work and business matters. That’s why it feels like an invasion of your privacy and freedom when the law accuses you of possessing or sharing illegal images.

How does Atlanta law enforcement find out who to blame for Internet sex crimes?

Here are a few of the main methods…

  • Posing as Potential Victims
    Law enforcement sometimes posts on personal classified ads posing as dealers or underage victims offering illegal services.
  • Tracking Down IP Addresses from File Sharing Sites
    FBI agents can log into illegal file sharing sites and pick up the IP addresses of users who pass around illegal material.
  • Sending Out Illegal Images and Tracking Down Those Who Download Them
    Also called “honey pots,” these illegal images are closely followed to see where they end up.
  • Tips from Concerned Citizens
    Jared Fogle, once the famous face for Subway, was convicted with child pornography charges all thanks to one person who alerted the authorities.

A friend borrowing someone’s laptop or computer repair tech tinkering on a PC are common ways people stumble across someone else’s Internet sex crimes.

Catching someone in an Internet sex crime usually involves cooperation from the local, State, and federal levels. Law enforcement issues subpoenas to Internet Service Providers to track down the individuals associated with a particular IP address.

    I was very pleased with the services Mr. Manciagli provided. He was professional, explained everything throughly, and most importantly Mr. Manciagli was able to get my case dismissed. I would refer him to anyone seeking legal council. My case was handled with absolute discretion and expertise.

Very grateful to him for all he has done since the day I met him. He's just the best.

    Client

    Mr. Manciagli has lived and traveled all over the world, including Latin America, and his legal work has taken him to Colombia, Mexico, Guatemala, Panama, and Jamaica. It was important for me, as a foreigner in the U.S., to have an attorney who understood me from a cultural level and who I could speak to in Spanish. If you or a loved one needs a criminal defense attorney, Jeff Manciagli is the attorney you should call.

    My lawyer in FL recommended Jeff when I got arrested in GA and didn't know what to do. I got pulled over in a cash-cow speed trap town 20 miles above the state line and they called a K-9 unit and got probable cause to search my car. I was livid and felt so violated. Luckily I hired the best of the best. Jeff always called/emailed me back promptly when I had questions about my case, and Always spoke to me as an equal. He took care of everything and when it came time to go to court was honest and logical in discussing what was best and how my plea would affect my future. Under his council I felt calm and in control. I was facing 3 misdemeanor charges and got them all dropped on the condition that I do a small amount of community service, pay a fine, and don't get in any more trouble for a few months. I didn't even get points on my license for the original speeding ticket. At the end of the day, money is replaceable- my time and freedom are not. If I or anyone I know ever has trouble in GA again, I will be calling Jeff.
