Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted July 9, 2014 Share #1 Posted July 9, 2014 I found this disturbing story on the Washington Post's website: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/local/wp/2014/07/09/in-sexting-case-manassas-city-police-want-to-photograph-teen-in-sexually-explicit-manner-lawyers-say/?tid=hpModule_13097a0c-868e-11e2-9d71-f0feafdd1394&hpid=z11 Synopsis: The Prince William County prosecutors want to serve a "search warrant" on a 17 year old male that would enable the police to take the teen to a hospital, inject him with a drug that would cause an erection, which the police would then film as evidence. The prosecutors allege that this would allow them to identify his member as that which was sent to his 15 year old girlfriend in a text video. The story states that this started when the girl sent him a sext message of herself and a video was sent to her phone. Her mother saw the video and filed charges. The video does not identify a person, only an erect penis. The police have already taken a picture of the boy's bits at juvenile lockup but apparently do not have sufficient proof that the photo is the same as the video. Is this as messed up as I think it is or do you think that the crime committed justifies the heavy-handed response from the prosecutor's office and the PO-lice?

jsharr ★ Posted July 9, 2014 Share #4 Posted July 9, 2014 Please, please, can we call it a tallywhacker? And yes this is taking it a bit far if that is all there is to the story. kids have been and will continue to play doctor, etc for years. Now they just do it with technology instead of face to face behind the wood shed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Road Runner Posted July 9, 2014 Share #5 Posted July 9, 2014 I don't see this as a problem. If he is not physically harmed, then why should he care? He IS claiming to be innocent, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsharr ★ Posted July 9, 2014 Share #10 Posted July 9, 2014 It's hard to say. I can say with some confidence that one way or another, this case will come to a head once the evidence begins to firm up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted July 9, 2014 Author Share #11 Posted July 9, 2014 Road runner, the problem that I have is a violation of unreasonable search and seizure. They're going to inject him with drugs to force an erection, take a video for the prosecution. Shouldn't the citizens of the US expect to have some level of privacy? You think that injecting people with drugs is ok? Nothing wrong with that? As long as it isn't you I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was any other body part, no one would have a problem with inspection to see if it was as described by a witness or victim. This is a particular part that can only be identified if erect, so why not? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems weird that they would be such lunatics about this if she was sexting him and he fired back a dick pic when both were minors. Kids are mostly banging at 13 these days, it isn't like that would have been the first time the girl had seen his dong or anything if they were bf/gf at the time.

But the Police filming or taking pictures of it would be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t have gone there with the kid, it seems like a reach and the courts agreed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t read up on the statuary rape laws of that state at that time but yeah appears so. Back in the 80’s the statutory rape laws in VA was 16 IIRC. Under the UCMJ it was ridiculously low, like 14. I’m sure they have changed since. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further Posted October 7, 2021 Share #38 Posted October 7, 2021 There was an old fella at work, nearing retirement he would wax poetic and try to pass on his hard earned knowledge. He knew a lot about furnaces, and trained a lot of young fellows on the finer points of tuning a burner, and balancing multiple burners to get even heating But the nugget of wisdom that got welded on to a slab of steel and hung in the lunch room was "Never trust a fart or waste a hardon" Larry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
