Damn, A child charged with child porn.


At least they caught her before it could go any further, I consider anybody who does child porn the lowest scum on earth.

Another three years, then pics.

This is the part I find truly bizarre.... she's being charged with possession and distribution of child pornography --- for taking explicit pictures of herself?? Is it just me, or does it make absolutely no sense to charge someone with possession of child pornography for having pictures of themselves?

I can understand if some slimy creep took pics of her or something -- then he could be charged with something.... but to charge her with a crime for taking pics of herself? What the heck?? What about looking at herself in the mirror naked -- does that constitute engaging in child porn as well?

At least she'll grow out of it.

One hopes.

Now, I guess I can't take pictures of my kids and post them on the internet.

maybe you didn't read this part:

State police

anyway, local prosecutor probably won't give her much, if anything

Wow. I don't really think that's child porn. Doesn't child porn mean if you are of age (17-18+) and in possession of pictures younger?

 

[Allio]

The 'posession' is the weirdest. What if you just took a picture of yourself? What if you looked at yourself in the mirror? :/

Something along those lines. There was a case where a 16 year old was dating a 15 year old, at some point she gave him some nude photos, then they broke up; afterwards he distributed copies around campus.

Damn, man, I would at least talk to the girl's parents about it, but charging her with a crime is too harsh.

Does that mean if I photograph myself masturbating it would be considered gay porn?

In your case it'd be a crime against nature.

I don't think it'll be considered child porn if she does it while over 18.

And my final stupid question in this thread: is she cute?

Now off to taint other threads with my vapid and useless questioning.
