Woman Ticketed For Nude Pics On Internet
Oneamp writes "A woman in Lincoln, Neb. has been ticketed for appearing nude in public after she published photographs of herself doing so. Apparently, it's not neccessary to be caught in the act. CNN article here" The article does not link to Harrington's website.

She's pretty busted alright!
From excellent karma to terible karma with a single +5 funny post...
If the police didn't catch her in the act, do they have witnesses that will testify that it was her in the bar and that she was naked? Did they check her ID? If not, whose to say who it really was and a bit of digital magic and
you could have almost anyone nude in that bar.... Considering it's digital "art" and such is airbrushed regularly, I'd think it might be hard to _really_ prove she was nude in the bar.
If they did can they prove it the bar was open at the time? If it was closed, wouldn't it be a private party/establishment? I'm sure being nude in a private space isn't illegal in Lincoln, or it must issue alot of tickets for nudity for taking showers at home....yeah, right.
Just some random things I'd think of off hand....
"Your honor, the defense introduces into evidence this box of computer software, labeled 'Photoshop,' and these three photos which purport to show the defendant flying over the Washington monument in the fashion of a comic book superhero..."
It takes talent to do this undetectably, but yes it can be done. I saw some show where a man played a practical joke on his mom by having a video made of her summer home destroyed by an explosion. The effect was done well enough that she batman'd into the car and drove all the way to the house. All it took was some video of the house, some stock footageof explosions, and somebody fairly talented with After Effects (or similar).
Makes you wonder: how long before the video cameras inside of cop cars are challenged because of what can be done with modern computer hardware and software?
