IF the person was over the age of consent then whatever went down between them is none of our business. If he wants to buy or engage in porn then that's up to him and the only thing that will result from this will be an awkward chat with his wife.


The grey area is when people are in places of power, a celebrity, or someone who has influences over someone. This could be through many ways or in this case by large amounts of cash it seems.
Should he be punished for enticing the situation, splashing the cash, etc?
It depends. Were there threats involved?

The law would come down strong if the person is under 18, but could it still apply due to the age gap?
Which according to the police isn't the case ?

Interesting there's people all over the internet calling the person a nonce/peado etc. yet fail to remember that the newspaper in question that broke the story published topless pictures of a 16yr old woman.

perhaps someone could explain how one is ok, and the other has lead to this witch hunt?
