‘Sexting’ Case to Take Center Stage at 3rd Circuit
Filed Under Category News by admin
Shannon P. Duffy writes at Law.com (The Legal Intelligencer): “The appeal in Miller v. Skumanick stems from a civil rights suit brought by three Wyoming County, Penn., girls against then-District Attorney George Skumanick Jr. alleging that he violated their First Amendment rights with his threat of a child pornography prosecution if they refused to take a class he had designed to educate youths about the dangers of sexting. The case is the first in the country to challenge the constitutionality of bringing child pornography charges in the context of sexting.”
