Former baby depicted on iconic Nirvana album cover sues band for child porn
By FRED SHUSTER
LOS ANGELES - The 30-year-old man pictured as a naked baby on the cover of the multimillion-selling Nirvana album "Nevermind'' filed suit today in Los Angeles, alleging the former members of the grunge-rock trio, various record companies, art directors and others violated federal criminal child pornography laws and caused him lifelong suffering by "trafficking'' his image worldwide.
Spencer Elden, of Los Angeles, alleges that his "identity and legal name are forever tied to the commercial sexual exploitation he experienced as a minor which has been distributed and sold worldwide from the time he was a baby to the present day,'' according to the complaint filed in Los Angeles federal court.
