Can you imagine a jury convicting someone beyond a reasonable doubt for possessing naked baby pictures of themselves? I can't. That would take one fucked up fuddy-duddy jury. I'd bet that nobody has been convicted in a trial for mere possession of innocently taken pictures of their own naked children let alone pictures of themselves. Arrested? Yeah, that's probably happened, police overreaction. That makes news, it's sensational. But, once again, we need a followup channel to show that they were released without charges because the prosecuter laughed the police out of his/her office. That shit never makes the news because there ain't any money in it. If it were in the newspaper, the arrest would be on the front page and the subsequent release would be a tiny article buried on page A27.
