I obviously over-simplified the idea of police and how they react to the situation. Silly meace_of_something said:
14 year old girl arrested for child pornography.

If you seriously believe that this girl being charged as a sex offender is a good thing, you are in fact a bigger moron than the girl is. You have no idea what it actually means to be registered as a sex offender. Depending on the state you have slightly varying restrictions but basically it's like being in jail without the jail part. You effectively are not allowed to live anywhere near where children may be (Essentially anywhere and everywhere.) in her case it would mean she could not be around her own goddamn peer group in all likelyhood! That prosecutors would even think of charging her this way is sad on every possible level.
So let me get this straight....
a 14 year old girl posts naked pictures of herself, and gets busted for child pornography.. a crime of which she is in fact the victim? So she's the victim and the accused of the same crime? How does that even work? This may truly by the first victimless childporn arrest. Blows my fucking mind.
And.. you're charged if you downloaded the photo, but not if you innocently viewed it? So if you right-clicked the image and went "save as" then you're a criminal? That's the definition they're using? because all clients download things. If you casually viewed the pictures in question, they're on your computer somewhere, until you delete them. What it seems to me is.. if you move the file from your temporary internet files in some way, you're a criminal, but if you don't, and just have the image in your temporary files, you're a victim, or at least aren't a criminal..
What's next? are they going to bring charges against a monkey? Like, if the monkey that maimed that woman wasn't killed on the scene, and they took it in, would they press charges? honestly, in this system, it wouldn't surprise me.

People like this girl should be prosecuted on the grounds of stupidity. Did you really think this was a good idea? I mean, fuck, get a clue, consider the ramifications of your actions before you go doing stupid shit like this. I don't give a shit if she's under the legal age of accountability, there's something inherently flawed in her thought process that needs to be changed.
Hell Utah lawyers charged a girl and boy as both rapit and victim becaue they had sex and happened to be under the age of consent.Altorin said:

Except that in most states, a level 1 has zero restrictions and if they are a child themselves won't be restricted from being around other children their own age (just children more that 5 years younger.) And since it's entirely at the judge's discretion what level she ends up at I doubt she will be more than a level 1.shadow skill said:
And since most of you aren't quite smart enough to remember: SHE IS A MINOR. Minors in the US get a record wipe at 18 (small stuff) and 21(everything that isn't murder or a level 3 sex offense) so HOW is this going to ruin the rest of her life?
She might have to wait a few year to get into the college she wanted to go to, she won't be able to get a security clearance for the military. That's it.
Kid's need to be taught that this IS NOT ok.
Because this is the United States and if you can see anything that is supposed to be covered by a bikini it becomes objectionable, and if what is shown can be used to make children it is pornographic.Booze Zombie said:
Yes, this is crazy, blah blah blah, cops and lawyers go to far, blah blah blah, tiniest violin, whatever. What's interesting to me is that the article announces without qualifications that when teens send racy pictures or text by txting, it's call "sexting."
It is? Really? And who exactly calls it that? I mean, other than local news teleprompter writers who think we won't remember/fear things properly unless they compress it into a terrible made-up word?
I love how we're at the point with the media where we have to actually learn a whole dictionary of their idiot words just to understand what the heck they're talking about when they try and report us the news. Otherwise we'd be sitting there scratching our heads every time they referenced "cyberspace" or added the word "-gate" at the end of every political scandal.
And they wonder why we aren't buying their papers or watching their networks. Live AP feeds online? Hmm, not too many swollen brain buzz words in there. Because that stuff is written for the media lumps themselves, so it has to be clear, concise, and understandable.
Imagine that.
Of course, like all things I don't like, I blame all of this on hipsters.

Well I'm a 14 year old boy.
I'm failing to say anything appropriate.
But I will say there is a similar thing that happened, but with no prosecution. There was a video going around our school about a naked 13 year old girl making a porn video for someone. At the end she rushes to the camera swearing, so her mom/dad must have walked in or something.
My friends shown me it, and I suggested they delete it or they would get arrested.

Can't...hold back...laughter... is the US that fucked up? with all the shit that's going down in that hell hole they decide to crucify a girl for doing the "popular" thing so she could gain some boys "attention"... for pity sake she's 14 at that age (boy or girl) you lack the common sense not to try mom's new culinary invention let alone contemplate the reaction the police will have when people see your privates on the internet (if she had any common sense she would've A: only taken body shots and B not included in her myspace page any location details, I assume that's how they found her at all) and some of em get stifies.
This case also opens another big can of worms... say a 15 year-old romanian girl posts naked pictures of herself online (in myspace or facebook or whatever) and some american sex offenders get a hold of them should it be considered child porn? (in Romania the law says 15 so it isn't child porn over here) I mean if right here it's legal to do that shit by default wouldn't it make it legal for someone in the US to have said pictures? And if so wouldn't the eventual backlash against said loophole cause what is going to happen (IE a bulgarian 14 year old girl getting side winded for distributing child porn when for her, in her country, it's legal)?

MySpace is a haven for supreme idiots, trolls, hackers and sex offenders. You do not post naked pics of yourself if you're younger than 18, no matter what. The kid needs therapy and fast because she's disturbed.
Either that or she could have been extorted.

personally, i think she should be registered as a sex offender and made an example of. it is NOT ok for underage kids to be posting pictures like that ANYWHERE or even taking them. i have pictures of me like that but they are for my own viewing locked on my computer. i will occasionally show them to others when they are over at my house but i am also 24. I wonder, what happened to teaching our kids modesty? i mean yeah i have a bit warped views on life since i am and have always been a jeans and tshirt kind of girl but seriously, what happened to leaving things to the imagination? i personally like it more when i have to imagine what someone looks like than not. Anyways though back on topic.
i think she not only needs the conviction but she needs counseling/therapy on "decent" behavior for her age. i blame this all on pop stars and stores like libby lu who encourage underage girls to wear as little as possible.
technically it is distribution of child pornography since she is underage hence the trying for a convictionWoundingisfun said:

and sometimes its used exactly what it was created for. by those of us decent enough to just want to keep in contact with friends who constantly change their emails for whatever reason. i have friends in the military i don't get to see who thats our only form of contact, some use facebook but most use myspace. its the way the world works.Cid SilverWing said:
The sad thing about child porn is that it is everywhere even when you are not looking for it just look at image forum sites like 4chan.
