A federal investigation is underway following the discovery that 12 photos of Jamie Lynn stolen by a Wal-Mart employee, including one of Jamie breast feeding her baby with her breast exposed, were being shopped around. TMZ says:
The pics were taken on Casey’s digital camera. We’re told he took the camera card to his local Wal-Mart in Louisiana for copies. Law enforcement believes someone at the Wal-Mart may have made extra copies, then tried selling them.
Because Jamie Lynn is a minor, selling the pics — or buying them — could constitute a violation of federal laws prohibiting child pornography. Peddling pictures of a minor’s breast — even if not taken for sexual purposes — could land the seller and the buyer in federal prison if they are marketed across state lines for the purpose of being lurid. Also, anyone purchasing the pics could be prosecuted for the crime of receiving stolen property.
Authorities are trying to find the man who is attempting to sell the photos. In addition, we’re told Britney’s lawyers are thinking about going after Wal-Mart for the alleged security breach.

what if she took the pics herself on the camera and wanted it printed for her own 1st baby scrap book? does that count as it being child porn? i just think they are doing their parent thing that all 1st parents goes thru. the person who stole it is just looking for some quick cash. so if it gets leaked then that is considered exploiting a minor and all that was said. Whatever, how much does a personal digital camera photo printer cost? i guess once “country” always will be one. Her sister said that first, i’m just repeating… Read more »
