Man Gets Prison in Tattoo-For-Sex Case

(Honesdale, Pennsylvania) For agreeing to pierce the nipples of a 16-year-old girl in exchange for sex, 37-year-old Robert Scott Shaffer was sentenced to a term of nine months to two years in a state prison. Shaffer pleaded guilty to corruption of a minor and tattooing of a minor without parental consent.

I think it's interesting that the law in Pennsylvania considers tattooing and piercing to be the same. I would classify the actions differently since piercings can be easily removed while tattoos cannot.
