Teen sexting prompts a move to update child-porn laws

Rampant teen sexting has left politicians and law enforcement authorities around the country struggling to find some kind of legal middle ground.

The debate is underway in Colorado, and it's revealed deep divisions about how to deal with the phenomenon.
