I wish they’d make a law that would hold politions and those holding offices of color or judicial responsibility accountable for acts they’d done as teens but they’d be the ones not charged while everyone else would be. Maybe they could make one for parents setting bad moral examples by not following code or regulation in front of a child.No that would mostly apply to them. I know lets make a law that will make about 70% of the population guilty and we will be able to past charge and change those we want to and not ect….Sooo glad we had no video phones as anyone who lost their virginity before 18 is potentialy guilty of sex with a minor (if your supposed was your age) or rape of a minor (you other was older) We could almost all be found guilty here. Scary Shit.

If they were recording sex acts among peers, with everyone in the room in agreement (I don’t use consent, because I’m assuming they are all in that consent gray area), then I don’t think it’s a criminal case. It’s a dumbass case. If there are adults involved, by all means charge them. If they were using the videos to harass each other, or filming without the knowledge of the others, charge them with the harassment. But seriously? These kids seem to be desperately in need of something, and I don’t think it’s jail time.
Someone needs to sit them down and give them a good “Seriously, stop acting like a moron” talking to and take their electronic gadgets away until they learn the boundaries. I have an old brick of a cell phone I could donate to the cause. I’m much more worried about the risky situations these kids are getting themselves into with each other than anything else.

And this is where I have a problem with sex offender laws. I want to know about the evil man who raped his daughter or the pervert who likes to stalk little boys… and not get them confused with a bunch of stupid teens who were thinking.. like well, stupid teens.

Idiot prosecutors are diluting terms like “child pornography” with this nonsense. I would like to be able to assume anyone guilty of possesion of child porn is a pedophile and a potential danger to my children. Instead, I have to stop and determine if they were just stupid teenagers, once upon a time.
And when you find out that someone has a conviction for child porn, what if they tell you it was for something like this, but it was actually for real child porn. How can you tell the difference?
Heinous charges should be reserved for those who commit heinous crimes. This is just ridiculous.

This is absolutely moronic. I would have been in so much trouble as a teenager if this technology had existed at the time and the law had taken an interest in it. Actually, I think most of us would have been in trouble. Lesson learned? Teenagers are horny. Thank Christ we have our wonderful State guardians to point out the painfully obvious.
What pisses me off the most about this is how the term “Child Pornography” is being diluted by such a frivolous filing of charges. Just ground the horny little scamps and take away their phones and computer privileges. Problem solved.

This reminds me of the case in Georgia of the 17-year-old who was charged with child molestation for getting a blowjob from a 15-year-old who was about to turn 16. Even though the verdict was overturned eventually, to this day the prosecutors absolutely INSIST that they did the right thing and that this kid should still be in jail. Fucking idiots.

Pennsylvania is in the process adhering to federal law that would require juveniles found guilty of child pornography to register as sex offenders.
Asinine! By doing this they dilute the purpose of the original law.
I can’t add to the eloquence of all commenters above.

wow. Things have changed alot since my day. Most teens I knew, as horny as they were, would not have sex with an audience present, much less allow someone to film it.

Wasn’t that the point of the 70’s, Rotten?
