scoreman - we get that idea from people like mike jones. you probably read about him. the police came and talked to him very nicely, and he invited them to come back anytime they had questions.
instead they showed up with a pediatrician (hoping she would claim the i.d.s were of younger people than the dates said, but she didn't) and took every computer and record he had. the harrassed his daughter, trying to make her say her parents sexually molested her. they took his livelihood.
when EVERY i.d. was thoroughly checked, and the models were indeed over 18, they continued with the cp charges anyway. in fact, when his case was resolved after FIVE YEARS, the state is considering appealing.
five years, and the best trial lawyers in our business. and he was lucky. after spending hundreds of thousands of dollars, destroying his kids teen years, taking away his business, and putting god knows what pressure on his marriage, at least he's not doing jail time for something he didn't do.
some of the older porn companies can tell you stories about raids and jail. porn is not considered legal, even if it is. and frankly, if the new regs are not stopped, most of us won't actually be legal unless we can hand over all those i.d.s and show they are cross referenced according to law.
