19 so far (as an officer). some days it only feels like...50( LOL )

some times it's fun to leave out the fact that I only work in a prison. Last year I told a fellow freeper that I spent new years eve locked up. Blew his mind until i let him off the hook and told him my occupation.

From another article:

The case was investigated by agents of the FBI. Assistant United States Attorneys Dean Eichelberger and Winston Holliday of the Columbia office handled the case.

"kiddie porn" is not really an appropriate description here.

in many US jurisdictions she is of the age of consent. also, in various jurisdictions there are "romeo and juliet" laws that carve exceptions for cases like this where there is a consensual relationship.

for me what really does him in is the added layer of the bomb threat. this is most definitely his "lifestyle" despite what he says.

“age of consent” for sex

She is still under 18 though, a minor

Not complicated

Nope, not complicated at all, dead simple, she can have sex unless she has sex.

She can have sex. They just cannot take pics and videos of it.

She can act like a porn star, she just cannot be a porn star?

Not quite, she can have sex, just not with anyone else, or it's statutory rape.

Or at least state sex is OK, but Federal sex isn't?

She can do the deed in South Carolina, but not in these United States...

...or did I miss something?

sex offenders have a lower rate of reoffense than other criminals. Stats don’t lie.

Some sex crimes are worse than others. The thing about the sex offender registry, at least the one in my town, it does not tell you what the offender did.

Attacking little kids or did he get caught taking a leak in a public park late at night?

go look at a nudist site

Whoa. Stop. Rewind. I missed this little gem when you replied to me earlier.

Now why on earth would I want to go look at "gray area" photos of children on nudism sites?

For someone who thinks child pornographers should burn in hell, you sure seem to know where to find pics of naked kids.

Source please? I'm given to understand that child molesters have the highest rate of recidivism, not the lowest.

And you told us all where to find them.

Now would be a good time to put away that shovel.

As somewhat of a side note, I read that statutory rape is one of the least prosecuted crimes in America. The article said that a large number of under age teen pregnancies occur in inner city black communities.

The author's claim was that the crimes went unprosecuted because they were black on black. Sorta sounds like the Sandy Hook murders versus a typical Chicago Saturday night, doesn't it?
