A WOMAN who starred in home-made pornographic movies with two teenage girls has had her jail term erased by the state's highest court.
The Full Court of the Court of Criminal Appeal today replaced Rebecca Jane Clarke's "excessive" 12-month jail term with a two-year good behaviour bond.
The 23-year-old, of Goulburn in NSW, remains a convicted sex offender, but only for now.
Although the court upheld her convictions, she has flagged a High Court challenge so she can pursue her dream of working with disadvantaged children.
In December 2007, Clarke was found guilty of producing child pornography - a DVD in which she has sex with two 14-year-old girls while saying "I feel like a child molester".
In another segment of the recording, she fondles one of the girls and says "your breasts feel like a 10-year-old's".
During her trial, Clarke maintained she was innocent of any crime as she "genuinely believed" the girls were 17.
She said her victims' physiques were "of the media ideal" and "like Calista Flockhart or the Olsen twins".
Although her 12-month jail term was suspended, Clarke appealed the "excessive" penalty.
Her lawyers told the court the sentence set a dangerous precedent for "innocent, luckless" people who unwittingly had sex with teenagers "made up" like adults.
Further, she wanted her convictions overturned – and her name removed from the sex offenders register – so she could seek employment as a social worker for troubled children.
In a unanimous decision today, Justices Tom Gray, Michael David and Richard White ruled Clarke should be resentenced.
They set aside her 12-month jail term and imposed a two-year good behaviour bond, but upheld her conviction.
Clarke was not present for today's hearing – she must attend court next week to formally accept her bond.

What a sick individual. God pray she is NEVER allowed anywhere near ANY kids....the idea that she wants to be allowed to work with kids...particularly disadvantaged kids, is truly a disturbing, frightening thought!!!

She wants to be a zozhial verker. Yeh, right. And she sure seems to have worked hard on her qualifications.

The same precedent that's been set for men thousands of times over? How many men have had sex with underage girls believing they were older based on their appearance and been branded sexual predators for having done so? The only precedent here is that it's happening to a woman. Although, I'll probably need to amend that statement when they allow her to lose her status as sex offender and start working with children.

Damn straight

geezz......a man would get what? 20 years?...for the same thing?


Cunt!!!

and here she is outside of courthouse

the connoisseur spake

it helps to have a ({}) when one is accused of pedo crimes

Holy shit fuckers. Excuse the language but that is literally what I said when I read this. How can they possibly be considering wiping her record so she can work with kids? Disadvantaged kids at that! I've lost what little faith I had in the Justice System.
