George Washington Law Review, Forthcoming.http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2260479http://hdl.handle.net/11212/1678This Article explores the issues of restitution to the victims of child pornography and other federal sex offenses in depth and contends that Congress meant what it said in Section 2259 — specifically that child pornography victims must receive an award for the “full amount” of their losses from any defendant convicted of harming them. This approach is consistent not only with the plain language of the statute but the well-established tort principle that any intentional wrongdoer is jointly and severally liable with other wrongdoers for an innocent victim’s losses. Requiring defendants to pay for the full amount of the losses that they have caused will address the significant financial losses suffered by child pornography victims.en-USchild pornographylaw reviewrestitutionvictimsThe Case for Full Restitution for Child Pornography VictimsArticle
