"Offer to tape sex nullifies conviction; It's not prostitution but speech, court says"

ADVERTISEMENTS
"Offer to tape sex nullifies conviction; It's not prostitution but speech, court says": Last Friday's edition of The Concord (N.H.) Monitor contained an article that begins, "A former district court bailiff who offered a couple $50 an hour to videotape them having sex is not guilty of prostitution, because there was no evidence he was satisfying his own sexual pleasure, the state Supreme Court ruled yesterday. To find otherwise, the court ruled, would illegally criminalize the production of a sexually explicit but not obscene movie, a venture that is protected as free speech under the state constitution."

The Associated Press reports that "Court overturns former Franklin court bailiff's prostitution conviction."

And today at Adult Video News, Mark Kernes has an article headlined "New Hampshire Upholds Citizens' Right To Make Sexual Content; It's not prostitution, says New Hampshire Supreme Court" (caution, linked article contains nudity).

You can access last Thursday's ruling of the Supreme Court of New Hampshire at this link.

At "The Volokh Conspiracy" today, Eugene Volokh has this post about the ruling.
