If no one is complaining, why would the authorities worry about it? Technically, everything FTV does falls under lewdness statutes here in AZ, but if no one witnesses it or complains then is a crime actually committed? (Love your shit FTV...always fun to watch). If someone watches an FTV episode and says.... Hey, that looks like it happened down the street.. the first question is. Did you actually see it happen?
Statutes of limitations come into effect very quickly. You can't be forced to implicate yourself. Who's to know when the content was produced? A lawyer would have a field day if they decided to use your own 2257 records were used against you.
I agree with you on the getting arrested and then lawyering out thing. I think that's a pretty good statement for most situations; however, prosecutors and DA's have to "make progress" too. If they weren't succeeding in making people pay for breaking the law then what good are they??? LOL (You've got to love the idea that cops and prosecutors have minimum levels of success and/or quotas... seems reasonable and silly all at the same time).

election years suck ass. I wonder if the Race for Prez will influence this in the least as the two front runners are also preaching the evils of porn. Maybe this guy will want to be in good with them.
One thing I have learned is to expect the unexpected and that people are evil.
