Hi,

I'm sorry you find yourself here. I wanted to prepare you that even if she is 17 it will still be classed as sexual communication with a minor and iioc as 18 is the legal age for images and also receiving sexual communication xxx

It would count as indecent images if she's is real and not a decoy. It would not count as sexual communication since the age in the law for that is under 16 unless you're a school teacher etc communicating with a pupil.

Losing it,

even with the fact that he has sent images of himself? I thought this would fall into a minor receiving pornographic material. Apologies if my original comment was wrong xx

No need to apologise! I think there probably is some older legislation around images and indecency but it's not covered by any of the sexual communication laws from 2003 which all refer to people 16 and under. The point being you could say something sexual to a 16-17 year old and not be prosecuted. But if you said it to anyone 15 or under you would be.

The law is completely insane for this. You can sleep with a 16 17 year old but not share a picture of them in a bikini

Hi, firstly, I'm sorry. 17 is illegal I'm afraid. The Police will send the phone etc off for expert analysis but I feel I should warn you that this can take months and months, if not more. I'm really sorry you find yourself in this situation. X
