Legal Question in Criminal Law in New Mexico

Use of child in a sexual performance
I would like to know if this carries a mandatory sentence of 5-15 yrs in NYS as this is what I was told by my son's attorney. Also no proof was ever brought forward just what the girl said. My son and here never met this was supposedly a internet communication. Can this sentence be true for a 1ST time offender with no proof by the DA except the girls word for it. They said thats all they need??

Re: Use of child in a sexual performance

In any criminal action, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt the crime he charging.

I suggest that you ask for a more detailed explanation and continue to ask questions if you dont understand. If necessary find another attorney.

Good Luck.
