Making A Sex Tape A Crime For Troops, Court Rules -- Army Times
Making a sex tape is a crime under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, the military’s highest court has ruled.
While it is perfectly legal for civilians to make videos of themselves having sex, service members are prohibited from doing so because it is “both prejudicial to good order and discipline and service discrediting.”
The Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces ruled that making a sex tape — even if it is never distributed and nobody sees it — amounts to having sex in public, according to a decision issued on May 23.
The case stems from the conviction of Staff Sgt. Ivan Goings, an Army medic. A search of his off-post home in Heidelberg, Germany, turned up a video made in 2006 showing him and another man taking turns having consensual sex with an unidentified German woman.
Goings claimed that the 2008 conviction violated his constitutional rights to private sexual activity.
