This father needs his azz beat. What father thinks taking nekkid pics of his daughters is ever okay? According to The Sun Sentinel: A South Florida naturalist, arrested on charges that he helped take freaky photographs of his three young daughters and shared them with other men, is putting on an unusual defense. Brian Martens, 53, who was living at a nudist colony in Palm Beach County, is arguing that there is nothing freaky about the pictures and that they are regular family portraits of a naturist family. Federal prosecutors say they believe several of the photographs are clearly inappropriate and the final judgment call should lie with a trial jury. A grand jury has already voted there was enough evidence to indict Martens on one count of producing child pornography and one count of receiving child pornography. U.S. Magistrate Judge Bill Matthewman agreed with the U.S. Attorney’s Office after reviewing the photographs during a hearing Wednesday in federal court in West Palm Beach. “Several of these photos the court has reviewed are lascivious. … They are, in the court’s opinion, sexually explicit,” Matthewman said. The judge ordered Martens detained without bond pending his trial — on the grounds that he is a serious flight risk and poses “a clear risk of danger to the community, and specifically to his daughters.” Marten’s attorney James Eisenberg agreed that one of the photographs is inappropriate — one the judge described as a close-up shot of one of the girl’s genital area — but said his client did not know the photograph was taken and never gave his permission for it to be shot. Martens hired a professional family photographer to take family portraits, Eisenberg said. “The girls have no clothes on … but they’re not doing anything of a sexual nature,” Eisenberg said. “If they were young ladies who had clothing on, no one would consider them freaky.” “Totally au naturale … is the normal state of all the people who live there,” Eisenberg said. “In the context that everybody in this family are naturists … these photos are not lewd or pornographic in any way.” Martens, who was arrested Oct. 29, would face between 15 and 30 years in federal prison if convicted of the child pornography charge, and five to 20 years if convicted of receiving child pornography. He has pleaded not guilty to both charges. He doesn’t need to have more children if he is going to exploit them like this. Shutterstock
