NH legislators close revenge porn loophole

A bipartisan group of legislators is seeking to make it a felony in New Hampshire to intentionally disseminate private sexual photos without the subject’s consent.
Senate Minority Leader Jeff Woodburn is sponsoring the legislation that would criminalize so-called revenge porn, but also ban the sharing of images collected without the subject’s consent, through a hidden camera in a shower or a bedroom.
The Dalton Democrat said the bill “closes a legal loophole” during a hearing before the senate judiciary committee Tuesday. More than two dozen states across the country have already enacted similar laws to crack down on these issues.
