https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2019/06/27/teen-traded-naked-selfies-with-girls-his-age-court-is-making-him-register-sex-offender/

Colorados Supreme Court upheld a ruling last week that required a juvenile boy to register as a sex offender after sexting and trading erotic pictures with two girls roughly his age, a split decision that highlights states recent struggles with applying laws passed in a less tech-heavy age. It began, according to the courts decision, at a 2012 Future Farmers of America conference, where the 15-year-old met two girls, one 17 and the other 15. In the months that followed, both girls came to believe they were romantically involved with the boy. Both girls testified that he texted them a photo of his erect penis and asked for a naked selfie in return. They eventually sent the photos after first resisting, the girls testified. Police discovered the photos when the boy was arrested on an unrelated charge and his phone was seized, court documents say.

After a bench trial, the judge ruled that the conduct had amounted to sexual exploitation of a child and sentenced the boy to spend two years on probation as a juvenile sex offender and register as a sex offender for at least 20 years, according to Reason magazine. The lower court observed that the photos focused on the girls intimate parts and suggested a sexual coyness. The court also reasoned that the teens repeated requests for naked pictures, after sending one of his penis, showed he wanted them for overt sexual gratification. (Overt sexual gratification is a necessary element to prove the crime. That nuance may explain the reason neither girl was charged.) The teen appealed the ruling, but last week the Colorado Supreme Court upheld it, despite a change to the state law last year that aimed to prevent teens from being prosecuted for texting nude selfies under sexual exploitation of a child. That change was not retroactive. Our holding today may strike some as unfair, especially given the recent changes in the law addressing juvenile sexting behavior, Justice Monica M. Mrquez wrote for the majority. However, we must apply the law in effect at the time.

I imagine it's because he initiated and coerced them into reciprocating.

The law is fucked up in that regard. Under the law, a kid can be arrested for their own nudes. If a minor takes a nude pic, and it's on their phone...their own nude..... They get arrested for CP.

The law is fucked up so the simple solution ? don't send dick pics, and don't keep nudes on your phone nor ask for nudes to be sent to you.

I dunno about this ruling. It makes it seem like these girls were victims even though they were complicit. The reasoning of "overt sexual gratification" almost implies that males are the only ones who can engage in this behavior and are the only ones who can be sexually-driven.

That is a long term solution, the short term solution is to avoid having or sending shit that will get you in serious legal trouble.

I am not victim blaming I am saying that it is not worth it to make stupid mistakes that fuck your entire life up.

The law stupid as it might be considers the nudes and dick pics "child pornography" because the ages are a 15 year old boy and 17 year old girls.

I am not in support of the law at all but I do know it is a bullshit law that you will get FUCKED for and it's best to not put yourself in that position.

I was being sarcastic because the person I quoted said the only time a 15 year old should get sex offender status if they fuck children. Which kind of ignores if that 15 year old raped other teens or adults, they could get a sex offender tag too.

Drunk male and drunk female have sex: drunk male is a rapist and has his life ruined.

The average 15 year old is not going to fully comprehend the ramifications of that and the impact it's going to have on their future adult life.

This ruling is ruthlessly unnecessary and unjustified.

They still technically possessed "child pornography" though, and might *still* possess it if the photo is still on their phones.

Hell, they technically *produced* child pornography when they sent him back nudes of themselves. Pretty sure in some states that production is as bad, if not worse, then possession.

Something bad happens to a guy, clearly a woman is to blame.

Then again, a few of the people in this topic blaming the girls also blamed Ariana Grande for Mac Miller's death so.

He sent nudes that they may still possess (I don't think the article makes that clear), and then they sent nudes back by their own volition. If the boy is going to be rung up on production/possession of child pornography, then the girls are equally guilty in that regards.

And no, I don't send or request nudes.

Now, I definitely agree with you that him getting made a sex offender is excessive. But it's not as though anything the girls did is creepy or harmful. What he did definitely is.

The issue is still that he was the one who initiated this nudes exchange, im not sure about what he did to pressure them to send him the nudes in return. So he is still the one to blame
