Police also arrested the teen and took him to juvenile jail, where Foster said they took photos of the teen’s genitals against his will. The case was dismissed, but police immediately obtained new charges and also a search warrant for his home. The male teen was served with petitions from juvenile court in early February, and not arrested, but when the case went to trial in juvenile court in June, Foster said prosecutors forgot to certify that the teen was a juvenile.
The girl has not been charged, and her mother filed a complaint about the boy’s video, Foster said. case began when the teen’s 15-year-old girlfriend sent photos of herself to the 17-year-old, who in turn sent her the video in question. The teen is facing two felony charges, for possession of child pornography and manufacturing child pornography, which could lead not only to incarceration until he’s 21, but inclusion on the state sex offender data base for, possibly, the rest of his life.
