SPLIT DECISIONS – CRIMINAL LAW – CHILD PORNOGRAPHY: Romo v. State, 04-19-00772-CR

Writer's picture: Michael RitterMichael Ritter

In a criminal case, the 4th Court held there was insufficient evidence to support a conviction for possession of child pornography. The majority held that the depictions of minors in a documentary about nudists were not “lewd” under the Texas Penal Code considering a variety of factors. The dissent would have held there was legally sufficient evidence showing the video’s depiction of minors was lewd.
