In California, distributing or owning adult content depicting a minor is a three-year felony, even when the subject is 17. The age of consent for image distribution is 18, regardless of how close to adulthood the subject is. Perez Hilton published a photo taken by paparazzi of Miley Cyrus at 17 without her consent and faced legal jeopardy under this statute.
