QUESTION

How is this a crime?

Asked on Dec 19th, 2012 on Sex Crimes - New Jersey
More details to this question:
This is a touchy legal question. Um a friend was chatting explicitly with someone that said "she" was 18. Turned out it was a adult man who wanted to use this against him. He also exchanged pictures with him. He threatened to send the pictures to the police. Can this be used against him? Since it was not a minor?
