Q: Does this apply even if the victim is married to the offender?
A husband has been distributing nude pictures and videos of his wife without her knowledge for over two years. This has all come to light recently, amongst several physical infidelities. He made multiple accounts in her name to exchange photos and videos while pretending to BE his wife. It qualifies as unlawful dissemination, but does being married make it any different? Can he still be charged?
A: Despite my 41+ years of experience in this difficult area of the law, I have to say that this is one of the most unusual questions I have ever heard. And something tells me to leave it alone and let some divorce lawyers answer it.
