Charges of Possession of Child Pornagraphy Against Pharmacist Do Not Issue After Clerk Magistrate Hearing
Our client is a pharmacist living near Boston. In the summer of 2022 a local police task force identified an email address linked to the defendant flagged for accessing child pornographic materials on the internet. The email address was using an IP address also linked to the defendant. The investigating officers contacted the defendant and tried to arrange a meeting to discuss their findings. Our office was hired immediately. We declined the invitation to meet with the police. A summons for a clerk magistrate hearing was issued charging our client with possession of child pornography in violation of G.L. c. 272 section 29C. During the hearing we convinced that clerk magistrate not to issue the complaint, citing Massachusetts case law demonstrating that this case could not be proved. The clerk magistrate agreed and the complaint did not issue.
