Supreme Court of Connecticut

State v. Inzitari

January 21, 2025351 Conn. 86

Summary

The court affirmed the defendant’s conviction for possessing fifty or more visual depictions of child pornography. It held that at least eleven of thirteen challenged images depicted a lascivious exhibition and that the remaining challenged issues did not warrant reversal because the jury received a sufficient general unanimity instruction and the challenged exhibits were properly admitted. The court also clarified that the first five Dost factors may guide the lascivious-exhibition inquiry, but the sixth factor concerning a viewer’s sexual response should not be used in possession cases.
