Remy Couture found not guilty of corrupting morals

wilbrod writes: A Quebec special effects artist charged with corrupting morals has been found not guilty in a case that tested the boundaries of creative expression and Canadian obscenity laws. He was charged with three counts of corrupting morals by distributing, possessing and producing obscene material. During the trial, Couture argued his gory works, roughly a thousand images and two short videos that appeared on Couture’s website, Inner Depravity, should be considered art.The material in question depicts gruesome murders, torture, sexual abuse, assaults and necrophilia — all with young female victims.
