Jamie Lynn Spears' stolen breastfeeding photo started pornography investigation

Stolen family photos of the Spears prompted a pornography investigation. One of the photos showing 17-year-old Jamie Lynn Spears breastfeeding her baby daughter, Maddie, as her left breast is exposed started this investigation. The photos were taken by Jamie Lynn Spears’ husband, Casey Aldridge. There were twelve family photos and Casey Aldridge took the memory card to the local Wal-Mart shop in Louisiana. Authorities believe that one of the employees at the Wal-Mart made extra copies of the photos and tried to sell them.

Fox News reports:

Because Jamie Lynn is a minor, selling the photos — or buying them — could constitute a violation of federal laws prohibiting pornography. Peddling pictures of a minor's breast — even if not taken for sexual purposes, could land the seller and buyer in federal prison if they are marketed across state lines for the purpose of being lurid, according to TMZ.

Both local and national authorities are searching for the perpetrator. Britney Spears’ lawyers are planning to sue Wal-Mart over security breach. Wal-Mart also said that they will investigate the matter.
