Three Boys Face Pornography Charges, Girl Does Not

This story in the Sun-Sentinel once again highlights how boys and girls (and men and women) are treated differently when it comes to criminal activity. Four youths (three boys and one girl) produced a pornographic video starring themselves. All four were set to benefit financially from its production. The three boys are now likely to face child pornography charges. The girl will not be charged. “You can’t pick and choose who you’re going to charge when you have more than one child involved,” Lerman said. “It shows the way society treats boys and girls. The boys are punished but the girls have to be protected.”
