Who commits the offense of Electronic Transmission of Certain Visual Material Depicting a Minor?

• A. A minor
• B. A non-minor
• C. A parent
• D. A teacher

Answer: (A)

The essential idea is that this offense is defined with the offender’s age in mind. In this statute, the act of electronically transmitting a visual material depicting a minor is tied to the person who commits it being a minor themselves. So the conduct is described as something a minor could commit, and the law targets under-18 individuals who transmit such material. That’s why the correct choice is a minor: the offense, as written, applies to someone who is a minor, rather than to adults or others. If an adult were involved in transmitting this material, a different statute or provision would typically apply.
