What a gibbering, drooling, bed-wetting train wreck of a sentence. Either someone's trying to throw criminal defense lawyers a bone or someone's just plain stupid.

Wasn't that a gem? That appears to be pretty much Davenport's entire contribution to the statute; the existing portions of the obscenity code are more coherent. "...solely for the sale of prurient interest in sex" doesn't even make sense; it's like some key words were dropped or something.
