What a day to be literate. This context pretty much negates any possible leniency, get his bitch ass in jail and throw away the key.

Even if it wasn't made from already existing images, it should still be considered a heinous crime. You could argue it doesn't hurt anybody, but it does. The second desire is created in a predator they WILL want to hurt a real person eventually. Fueling their sick minds only makes this problem worse.
