Teenager Simulates Oral Se x With Jesus Statue, Faces 2 Years in Prison [See More]

14-year old from Everett, Pennsylvania has caused a stir and is facing prison time for hopping in front of a Jesus statue in front of an organization called “Love in the Name of Christ”, and simulated oral se x before posting the picture to Facebook which caught the attention of others before finding its way to authorities.

According to Mother Jones, officials have charged the teenager whose name has not been released, with desecration of a venerated object which according to a 1972 Pennsylvania statute criminalizes “defacing, damaging, polluting or otherwise physically mistreating in a way that the actor knows will outrage the sensibilities of persons likely to observe or discover the action.” and the culprit might be facing up to 2 years in juvenile detention. 

Although some are arguing the validity of the statute as it negates the establishment law, other states have similar laws like Alabama, Tennessee, and Oregon.
