Establishes an affirmative defense to aggravated child pornography in which the offense involves the depiction of a child known or reasonably known by the defendant to be under 18 years of age engaged in certain sexual acts that the defendant reasonably believed, under all of the circumstances, that the child was 18 years of age or older or that the person was not a severely or profoundly mentally retarded person but only where, prior to the act or acts giving rise to a prosecution, he or she took some affirmative action or made a bonafide inquiry designed to ascertain whether the child was 18 years of age or older or that the person was not a severely or profoundly mentally retarded person and his reliance upon the information so obtained was clearly reasonable. 2/11/2008HouseFiled with the Clerk by Rep.
