My question involves criminal law for the state of: Washington.

While reading the requirements for this "diversion" program, it seems to me that possession of child pornography is precluded from this program. That cannot be right. According to the requirements you must have a relationship with the child apart from the sexual offense to be able to apply for SSOSA.

So, does that mean a person that actually molests his own child, a neighbor, a student, or whatever, can undergo alternative sentencing, but someone who watched child porn on their computer cannot?

Looking at the sentencing grid, it looks like this crime a 6 severity with a 0 offender score, because the person has never had a prior arrest, conviction, or anything on their record.

The sentencing grid seems to indicate a penalty of between 12-14 months in jail. So, does this mean there may also be registering as a sex offender, community confinement, etc? Or can you do your 14 months and have paid for your crime?
