Defence in Section 184 StGB Cases in Germany

Pornographic content, dissemination allegations, and digital investigations

Proceedings under Section 184 StGB often concern the sending, sharing, making accessible, or public display of pornographic material. In cases involving messaging services, platforms, social media, or shared devices, it is essential to examine exactly what content is at issue, which statutory act is being alleged, and whether the accusation is legally sustainable in the form asserted.
