Noe Iniguez, 36, of Los Angeles County, is the first person to serve time under California’s so-called “revenge porn” law.
Enacted in 2013 and followed by other states, California’s “revenge porn” law makes it illegal to post nude or sexual images with the intent of causing emotional harm, says
Iniguez was found guilty of violating the law by posting nude photos of his ex girlfriend on her employer’s Facebook page without her permission, reports and other sites.
Iniguez was found guilty of three criminal counts, including two restraining order violation, according to the Los Angeles City Attorney Office ..
Given the publicity at the time the law passed, one would think there would have been more convictions.
At the time, there was concern about pornographic sites that essentially extorted people – Give us a fee and we’ll take down the photos we have posted without your permission. But some of those sites, such as IsAnyoneUp, have either closed or faced prosecution under different laws.
