    For example, if the material is sold or transferred via the internet, the State may not even be able to determine the name of the depicted individual, where the individual lives, or his or her age at the time the material was produced. See State v. Michael J. Morris, No. 04CA0036, 2005 Ohio App. LEXIS 621 (Ohio Ct. App. Feb. 16, 2005).

After first observing that the wording of the statutes limited its application to material in which an actual child was used, the Ohio court concluded that the provision at issue merely allowed for the State to prove its case through circumstantial evidence and, thus, did not violate the holding in Free Speech Coalition:
