The outcome could be applied to anyone who is researching online child pornography, according to Matthews's lawyer.įor example, psychiatrists, sociologists, professors, or even congressional staff who are drafting legislation regarding the material could theoretically be charged with criminal activity for engaging in the practices for which Matthews was indicted. The case carries wide implications because the government is asking the court to prohibit Matthews from using the First Amendment as a defense. But the government argues that he wasn't acting as a journalist-and even if he was, prosecutors say, reporters do not have the right to sidestep the law. Matthews says he was conducting research for a story.

Matthews apparently stepped in the middle of one such sting and was indicted last summer on 15 counts of possessing and transmitting child pornography. The FBI's Innocent Images program in Baltimore, Maryland, uses a similar strategy, with agents lurking anonymously in chat rooms to catch adults who solicit minors or offer up child porn. When veteran journalist Larry Matthews set out to expose the booming child pornography market on the Net, his attorneys admit he used a risky tactic to get the story: Matthews infiltrated and engaged the digital underworld where sexually explicit images of minors are traded or sold.
