Posting nude personal photos of an individual online without their consent could soon become criminal in Kentucky.

"The Revenge Porn" Bill would make sexting nude videos and pictures a misdemeanor if they show an identifiable person without that person's permission. It would be upgraded to a felony if the revenge porn is shared for profit or gain.

Revenge porn is considered the malicious distribution of sexually-explicit photos or videos that were intended to by kept by a person depicted in the images but voluntary shared with another individual for whatever reason.
​

The “Revenge Porn Bill,” known as House Bill 110, unanimously passed in the Kentucky House and is in the Senate for consideration. The bill is sponsored by Reps. Joni Jenkins, D-Shively, and Tom Riner, D-Louisville. It passed the House by a vote of 92-0.
