No, a young girl's life is ruined because she did something STUPID!

A young girl's life is ruined because of an absurd legal system. Honestly, are those prosecutors just in it for the money? The people who unknowingly received the images should sue the prosecutors if they indeed charge them.

Because of this, the girl basically will have a hard time getting into college, or even getting a job that requires any type of clearance or background check (like being a teacher)

There should be a law about this. How can you convict someone of something when they're not old enough to legally have sex?

@ +Echilon - What you just said makes absolutely no sense. 1) "How can you convict someone" ... you admit here there's a felony to convict against 2) When not legal - so what they are doing is illegal. So your question is: How can you convict someone of a felony act for doing something illegal? I think you want to give that more thought.

Surely the good people of Licking County would be more decent. I'm definately not making that my next tourist destination. They don't sound like fun people.

The problem here is common sense. When I was in Junior High, it was always a popularity contest. Whatever the pressure - drugs, alcohol, sex, fighting, etc. people would always succumb because they wanted to be closer to the center of attention. Taking a nude pic of yourself is sure to have some of the boys like you (more). Before cell phones and the Net were around, I'm sure others were already doing the same thing.

I think in this case the child porn charge is absurd given the consent angle and the fact she is 15. I think its more of a common sense thing. Although the law never looks at it that way. It would make every person in the HS who's seen the picture a Pedophile. Hardly, I think what the DA wants nor are ready to press charges about that many kids.

The problem is if you don't prosecute the Hell out of this stuff, then there are legal precedents. Organizations like NAMBLA shouldn't exist. They need whatever ammo to get this out of the way.

The smarter thing to have done is have a DA that actually *has* common sense. If charges were never pressed: 1) No story to make the news; 2) No charges to file; 3) No need for a court case or a plea; 4) If the court case is defeated then one less chance the pedos get prosecuted. Given the sickness of pedos, the DA should be the one going to jail for runing the system.

Actually this isn't true I myself have quite a lengthy juvenile record for stupid stuff I did as a kid (runaway, Grand Theft Auto for stealing mom and dads car, incorrigible (yes they can charge you with that), Domestic violence (fighting with sibling), theft (I stole some smokes...lol) and a few others I can't think of of hand), and it hasn't affected my adult life in any way.

In the U.S. juvenile records are sealed, and can be expunged. I could file the papers right now and have my records expunged, but really there would be no purpose except to cost me money, because as I said it hasn't affected my adult life in any way.

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      Web search has been one of those crap ware that I try to get rid of asap. It's annoying and slow. It was a cheap way for Microsoft to drive traffic to Bing.
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By WaltC · Posted

      All I can say is that think the USB G8 is better in many ways, and costs the same or slightly less. I wouldn't part with mine. It's even a big improvement over the G6 USB. (You can also use studio phones (up to 600 OHMs I think) with the G8, but I have to say that even relatively cheap 30-50 OHM phones sound absolutely great--far better than through most internal motherboard sound!) Considering the difference in these products I am surprised that Creative is still making the PCIe internal card versions. https://www.headphoneer.com/cr...ve-sound-blaster-g8-review/
    • I have really been nerding out on my desktop icons and feel compelled to share...

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I missed this when you first posted it, but those are awesome icons! I would normally prefer things to be uniform, but each of those icons seems to fit perfectly for the game! If I may ask though, what was your thought process on which icons are circular - MK makes sense - and which ones should be rectangular or square?
    • Microsoft Paint used to be my favorite Windows app as a kid, and it's still pretty good

      By WaltC · Posted

      What I like about Paint is using it almost exclusively for cropping and resizing images I get elsewhere--it's quick, easy and cheap... I keep it glued to my taskbar, in fact. Also, the clipping tool comes in handy, as well (hit print scrn on the keyboard and it activates immediately.)

      I still remember it fondly today. It was so cool to work in 64-color Half Bright mode and 4.096-color HAM mode (interlaced) when x86 was still in 4-color CGA or 16-color EGA low res. C= never realized what it had until it was far too late--the failure of C= was the failure of its top management. The C= Amiga was 20 years ahead of its time, I always thought. It didn't hurt that in only 512k of chip memory, the Amiga could preemptively multitask when Apple was still doing gray scale graphics on tiny screens and along with everyone else was doing cooperative multitasking (running more than one app at a time in resident memory, but you could only run one of them at a time--had to manually switch between them.) I had a ball with AREXX scripting running between programs that had AREXX ports so that when you sent other applications data and instructions, those running applications could process the same in real time to output! Memories...
