Understanding Michigan penal code 750.145 c

In Michigan, pornographic materials featuring minors is known as Child Sexually Abusive Material, or CSAM. Creation of CSAM is considered a Child Sexually Abusive Activity, or CSAA, and knowingly possessing this material is a felony. The definition of and penalties related to child pornography are outlined in Michigan Penal Code 750.145c.

Child pornography charges cover a wide range of acts including

  • Persuading, coercing, or allowing a child to engage in sexually abusive activity related to the production of sexually explicit material
  • Distributing or promoting child pornography
  • Child pornography possession or the act of seeking to possess child pornography

In addition to outlining the boundaries of these criminal acts, this code also identifies the various penalties of a conviction, which could include hefty fines, a lengthy prison sentence, and a permanent criminal record.
