I know it's a stretch, but couldn't they also be charged with something close to child pornography? Cause I mean the girl was 15, and even though you aren't watching it through a TV/computer screen, it is pretty much the same thing. Especially if there was that big an age difference (like someone mentioned one man was 32).

I think if they filmed it and it was distributable, yes.
Not sure if watching a live sex act (no matter how heinous) is 'porn'.

Most, if not of those laws require that the act be stored on some sort of recording medium. Also, some states have wonky definitions of who is a child and who is not.

lol @ "wonky"
It's interesting that sex acts aren't considered porn unless they're recorded somehow. I guess I never really thought much about the definition of porn.
