The Legal Distinction: Child Pornography vs. Sexual Exploitation
While everyday language uses them interchangeably, Colorado law does not contain a separate statute explicitly named "child pornography." Instead, what the public refers to as child pornography is prosecuted under the larger umbrella of sexual exploitation of a child (C.R.S. ยง 18-6-403).
However, a distinct legal difference exists in how these charges are parsed based on the underlying conduct.
- The scope of sexual exploitation: This overarching statute covers the actions of abusing or using a minor to create explicit material. It penalizes the production, manufacturing, inducement, or promotion of a child engaging in live or recorded explicit acts. It focuses on the active exploitation of the individual.
- The scope of child pornography: Legally categorized under the statute as the possession or control of "sexually exploitative material," this specifically targets the media itself. This charge applies to individuals accused of viewing, downloading, possessing, or accessing digital images, videos, or files depicting a minor in a state of explicit sexual conduct or erotic nudity.
