What a difference a day makes. Yesterday Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez was being called a perv for allegedly macking it with Eliza Kruger, the 17-year-old daughter of a hedge fund manager from New York City. Today, demands for Eliza Kruger pictures are one of the hottest Internet search trends.
Who's the perv now, oh Internet? Sanchez has done nothing wrong. New York and New Jersey law both give the 24 year old leave to date a 17 year old based on the age of consent. But the same doesn't apply to sexy pictures of Kruger that might show up on the Internet.
If she's dressed, it's fine. Let's hope for everyone's sake, but most of all hers, that she is. She's put way too much of her own information out there, thanks to the interview with Deadspin that started this whole scandal, but she's still a human being who deserves some dignity. And let's hope that's what people concerned with this sex scandal are looking for.
But go looking for proof of Mark Sanchez and Eliza Kruger in flagrante delicto, and you're more than just a perv. You're a pedophile. If you want to see lascivious pictures of Eliza Kruger, you're committing a crime under federal law. Whether she's legally allowed to have sex or not, at 17 she falls under the federal child pornography statute regardless of who took the photos (yes, even if she took them of herself to send to Marky boy). That includes any picture that:
