I agree with brother Miler. Iowa Code section 728.2 prohibits the distribution of pornography to minors, and because this minor is out of state there are federal and Virginia criminal implications. Beyond that, sexting with a minor is sort of saying to the government "Here I am. Arrest me and ruin my life."
