So how can he be arrested?
At age 21 Boebert distributed child pornography as revenge porn, because his ex-girlfriend wanted nothing to do with him. It does not appear she consented to the original making of the child pornography. In every state of the union, it is illegal for someone under 18 to consent to making pornography. It is absolutely certain she did not consent to Boebert distributing the child pornography.
It seems like Boebert has made a deal where he will serve virtually no time for child pornography, and revenge pornography. These are serious crimes, and he is getting an amazing deal.
Basically, if you are 21 and your girlfriend is 17, wait for her birthday to make the sex tapes...
And maybe only distribute it if she allows it to be distributed. This distributing of sex tapes as revenge for breaking off relationships is wrong.
So he can butt fuck her...just cant film it?
She is legally allowed to take a shower naked as a minor. If he films her against her will taking a shower, and then distributes the child pornography as revenge when she refuses to have further sex with him, that is a crime.
So yes, distributing child pornography as revenge is a crime.
He wasn't arrested for having sex with her, he was arrested for making a video of her having sex.
You are 100% correct, but I would add the chances of him getting caught for just making the child porn was very low. His huge mistake was first threatening to distribute it if she did not continue to have sex with him, and second actually distributing it.
He was 18 at the time, wasn't he?
No, he was 21 years old when he decided to distribute child pornography.
Not that it matters per statute.
Correct, there is no Romeo and Juliet Law for child porn. There is no age where you can distribute child porn and say you are too young to prosecute. There have been more and more cases where high school boys have made child porn and distributed it as revenge porn. There is no age where that is legal to do.
It's political, or no one would ever hear about it.
If he were not politically connected, he could be looking at 20 years minimum. Instead, he is looking at 30 days suspended.
Anyway, this thread is not about Trump. Stick to the topic.
It is about maga "family values", and about trump intervention to get a scumbag a reduced sentence.
