meganbmooreRemember the Iowa collector who was arrested for buying obscene manga from Japan? Apparently it was yaoi manga.
Legally, I'm not sure there's a leg to stand on unless there was shouta in the collection, but I wonder if this means they're going to start looking at other licensed manga, especially since the androgynous figures were apparently part of it.
ETA: I'm also very curious about what made the postmaster suspicious about this guy in the first place. Was it random, typecasting, or something about him in particular, whether behavir or problems/accusations/convictions in the past?

"Hmm...this package looks small and inconspicuous enough--wait a minute, it's from JAPAN! It could contain Bloody And Violent Japanese Porn! I must...investigate. Yes. Exactly."
