Turenne v. State

Summary

The court held that the evidence was sufficient to support the petitioner's convictions for child sexual abuse, production of child pornography, and possession of child pornography. For the sexual-abuse convictions, a rational juror could infer that the petitioner photographed the children for her own sexual gratification based on the photographs and the surrounding circumstances. For the pornography convictions, the court adopted a content-plus-context test requiring consideration of the image's contents and the totality of circumstances directly related to the exhibition, and concluded that the photographs were objectively sexual in nature.
