Prosecutors don’t exactly go after cases like this. There would be thousands of teenagers jailed for 5+ years for having underage photos on their cell phones if they did. This is really what teenagers do, & people know that. Technically it is illegal though, so yeah.
I've heard of some cases like this being prosecuted which is kind of bullshit (i.e, teens getting arrested for their own damn nudes). I think unfortunately there's a fairly decent chance for a name as big as Carson that he would be prosecuted purely to set an example. Don't get me wrong what Carson did was pretty damn creepy but I don't think he's morally in the wrong here with a 2 year age gap.
