If she finds out about this from the media, should the media be punished? I dont think that "she knows about it" is in any way sufficient to be considered against the law. It is simply not a crime from any angle I look at it.

No I do not think it is the media that is then responsible for the crime, I do think it is in very bad taste however. Very much like the initial act of doing the photo shopping. However the act was still performed by the man and therefore still his problem. In the case I mention of downloading a picture of an unknown girl... If for some reason this ever came to light, and she did find out, then at that time the act does become a crime as there is now a victim. As I said the act of doing the photo shop is not the problem. It is when this act then affects the life of the other person involved that it becomes a problem. Just as crashing a car is not a problem, but when you crash your car killing another person it is now a crime. It is no longer a case of insurance payouts and body shop bills. It is now a case of manslaughter and may very well end up in fines and or prison.

In the case of the photo shopped faces there is also the question of the reaction of the other person involved. In either of the cases mentioned here the "harm" is not physical it is mental. And on a case by case basis you could asses the mental harm and react accordingly. If this act does not cause mental pain to the girl then again I would say no crime. I do not see this as likely but i can see the possibility of this outcome. Only because the young girl is more likely to be scarred by this, where as myself for instance (as weird as it may sound) would not care so much if I found someone had Photo shopped my face onto a porn star's body, and had added it to his/her spank bank. Thus I can see where the "victim" may not care and thus no crime.

I admit I am guilty of making assumptions in this case. I assume she knows, and I assume she will be upset if she knows. But this is based on my opinions of her situation, and I may indeed be wrong. However I still stand by my claim that if the "victim" is indeed emotionally harmed by this action then it is now a crime. Not because of the action itself, but by virtue of the harm it caused another. I do not presume to dictate laws, and I realize the courts disagree and say he was not in the wrong. However in my opinion it should be, assuming my assumptions about her emotional well being are true.

Given as that the girl would have been the primary witness in the original case, it is unlikely that she does not know her father viewed her as a sexual object.

If he was spreading these photos around, there are laws against it. But that does not seem to be the case here.

People need to go to the nude beach and not get so hung up on human behavior. Is there really that much difference between a younger body and an older body or part. And isnt sexuality about feelings and consent that really spark coital actions.

If you think this topic is upsetting what do you think about this?

In places like the middle east its very common for old men to marry children less in age then 16. And not so long ago it was quite common in North America and Europe for these same actions.

Relationships and survial were driven by financial circumstances. I think when society becomes judgmental it cause people to emotionally deviate.

Would it be better to help people understand boundaries or how to develop a loving relationship.
I think its sad or even sick people are willing to judge harshly others which makes people deviate aswell an perhaps even worse shame is tool to be used wisely people.

Unless you want judgemental mobs conspiring.
