Vermont law enforcement executed a warrant for my computers and flash drives for a suspicion of child pornography. I haven’t been cited with anything or arrested, should I still contact an attorney?

Yes. Vermont child pornography charges can be delayed due to the time it takes to forensically analyze computers and external hard drives. It is best to contact an attorney as soon as the warrant has been executed, even if you have not been arrested or cited to court for possession of child pornography.
