Hmmm, that's interesting. Well done for finding that, I couldn't find anything!
In a way it makes sense that its not well known, it's probably best that most people think its illegal even if its not. One has to wonder why it isn't illegal everywhere though. Very concerning indeed!
Thanks for getting back to me :)
Well done for finding the one state that has ruled against everyone else? Can I get a well done for giving you examples of states that have upheld the federal law, in that it isn't illegal until you purposely download the child porn.

This is a strange subject. I'm really surprised by what this research has turned up! I never in my life imagined I'd be looking at child porn laws either. What the hell am I doing?? :)
Is it normal that my boyfriend was looking at pictures of child porn?

I only looked at a couple of states. You want more?

I just found a very informative source citing landmark cases and newer state laws:
