momlogic.com : Parents Sue Walmart Over Kid Bath Pics.momlogic.com : Are Bathtime Pictures Child Porn?
Let's say you take some pics of your kids (ages 1½, 4, and 5) at bath time, and then you go have them developed at Walmart. The Walmart employee sees the pics and calls the cops on you for child porn. Your kids are taken away and you don't regain custody for a month.
That's exactly what Lisa and Anthony "A.J." Demaree of Arizona say happened to them ... and now they are suing Walmart.
Richard Treon, the Demarees' attorney, said the seven to eight bath- and playtime photos of the girls were only part of the 144 photographs from the family's vacation in San Diego.
"There was nothing sexual about it," Treon told WTOP. "This is a parent's worst nightmare."
The couple has filed two lawsuits, one directed at the State Attorney General's office, the City of Peoria, and the state of Arizona. The other lawsuit is directed at Walmart, headquartered in Arkansas.
This morning, they spoke to "Good Morning America" more about their ordeal.
"I don't understand it at all," A.J. Demaree told "Good Morning America." "Ninety-nine percent of the families in America have these exact same photos."
As we reported previously, the Demarees' kids were taken from them for more than month. Their names were placed on a sex offender registry, and Lisa Demaree was suspended from her school job for an entire year.
