If you are convicted of possession of child pornagraphy, you would be required to register as a sex offender.  However, due to your young age, you might be able to petition the court to be removed.  See RSMo. Section 589.400.  In any event, you should contact an attorney before you make any statements to law enforcement. This answer does not create an attorney/client relationship.   Andrew D.
