Dutch porn makers let off for church sex film in Tilburg
15 August 2017 Europe
Prosecutors have rejected a complaint from a church in the Dutch city of Tilburg after two actors were filmed having sex in the confessional box.
The video was posted on a Dutch porn website earlier this year.
Dutch authorities said the pornographic film was offensive but there was no longer a law in the Netherlands against blasphemy.
The priest at Saint Joseph's Catholic Church, Fr Jan van Noorwegen, said he was unhappy with their decision.
Another church official complained that there was something deeply wrong with the legal system.

And now they've gotten off in court, too.
