Didn't say that. And not necessarily in favor of minors or even young people being labeled as a sex offender for distributing photos of themselves or others. That would depend on the context of each case. But neither do I think minors of either sex who choose to disseminate pornographic photos of themselves should not be held culpable.
I have both sons and daughters, thankfully, now adults. But both sexes were/are equally vulnerable to temptations, and frankly, stupid mistakes. I just think there should be consequences meted out according to the severity/frequency of the offense. Again, context is everything in such cases. I do not know how old was the man the father called the cops about, but if I were that father, I would have continued the conversation/pursued charges against the alleged offender via A LAWYER even IF my daughter could possibly be charged with disseminating pornographic photos of herself, as she'd likely not do it again. Could possibly save her from becoming an Only Fans spectacle later on.
No, the cops were off-base to be sure b/c their immediate response was to tell the dad she could be charged. That, IMO, is suspicious. They should have at least gathered the complete information about the person the father was complaining about first, and then informed him of the potential for her to be charged as well. To have "gone there" right off the bat seems breech of protocol to me. Again, a lawyer should handle this. Cops are culpable, too.
