On Wednesday, January 22, 2014, the United States Supreme Court heard oral arguments in a landmark child pornography case. At issue, is the amount of financial restitution that convicted offenders must pay to the victims of their crimes. The name of the case is Paroline v. The United States. The convicted offender in the case appealed an order made by the United State Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit requiring him to pay restitution for the “full” amount of his victim’s harms. The offender claims he owes nothing because the victim is unable to prove that his possession of the pornographic images proximately caused the victim’s harm. The Supreme Court must now determine Congress’ intent when it passed the restitution law in 1994. Hopefully, the victim will be allowed to obtain full restitution for her harms.
