This bill creates a crime for soliciting a sexually explicit photograph, recording,
or other representation from a person who is under the age of 18. Under the bill, if
a person who is over the age of 18 solicits such a representation from a person who
he or she believes is under the age of 18, he or she is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.
