Court to clarify obscenity yardstick in high court
The Supreme Court agreed to hear William Pinkus case on whether contemporary community standards include children in judging obscenity. Pinkus, convicted in 1975 for mailing obscene materials to multiple states, argues the trial judge erred by instructing jurors to consider all walks of life. He contends materials were for adults and should not have included minors in the standard assessment. The case questions if including children changed the outcome and whether films like Deep Throat and The Devil in Miss Jones were proper for comparison in court. Pinkus received four-year concurrent terms and a $5,500 fine.
