I’d argue that the problem of minors declared sex offenders for nude pictures has reached a critical mass that scares me. At this point, sex offenders of truly vile things can hide by saying that they are on a sex offender registry because of underage selfies. And I think most people will believe them.
- wccrawford 5y agoI worked with someone that claimed this, years ago. And they were still young enough that I believed them.
- joombaga 5y agoAm I missing something? Why would they say they're sex offenders at all?
- emadabdulrahim 5y agoThey wouldn't. But if they were sex offenders, they could claim that their offense was simply sending a nude when they were 16. While their real offense may have been rape. I don't actually know what the law is in regard to sex offense. I'm simply explaining what I understood from the previous comment.
- cormacrelf 5y agoAs I understand it, one of the primary purposes of sex offender registries is to get information out about who is on them. I believe some people are forced to knock on doors in their neighbourhood and disclose it. In other situations they would just be getting ahead of the story.
