Charged with Revenge Porn in New Jersey? We Can Help.
If you’ve been accused of sharing intimate images or videos of someone without their consent, you could be facing serious criminal charges under New Jersey’s “revenge porn” law (N.J.S.A. 2C:14-9).
In New Jersey, it’s a crime to post or share private, sexually explicit content of another person—even if they consented to being recorded—if the other party did not agree to it being shared. This is generally one person's word against others as very few people have their partner, girlfriend or other sign a release before filming. The law targets situations where the intent is to harass, embarrass, or harm the other person.
What You Need to Know:
You can be charged with "Disclosure of Invasive Visual Recording" if:
- You shared or posted an intimate photo or video of someone;
- That person was nude or engaged in a sexual act;
- They did not consent to the image being shared;
- And the image was shared with the intent to annoy, harm, or harass.
Even if the recording was originally consensual—like in a relationship—sharing it later without permission can lead to criminal charges.
What Are the Penalties?
Most revenge porn cases are charged as a third-degree crime in New Jersey, which can carry:
- 3 to 5 years in prison
- Fines up to $30,000
In less serious cases, it may be charged as a fourth-degree crime, still punishable by up to 18 months in prison and fines up to $10,000.
