Is Revenge Porn A Crime In Texas?

Revenge porn laws in Texas came into being in 2015, titled the “Unlawful Disclosure or Promotion of Intimate Visual Material.” Since then, it has been illegal to purposefully share or spread photos and videos of someone when you can see the intimate areas of their body or they are engaged in any sexual activity and:

• The subject allowed those images to be taken with a reasonable expectation that they would remain private
• The disclosures reveal the subject’s identity and harms them in some way (even reputationally)

Even threatening to reveal such images is also considered an offense under this law. Revenge porn can range from a Class C misdemeanor to a state jail felony, depending upon the situation.
