I read a couple of weeks ago that the UK has prosecuted cases of importation of "child" dolls. The position the prosecuting authorities there take seems to be that the transgressors don't by any means limit their activities to the dolls. I'll try to find the link.

A lot of the people quoted in that first article seem very sure that it must be made illegal, but don't seem to provide any actual reasons why it should be so. The main reason seems to be, as you say, indication of other offences (although in reality all it indicates is the same sexual interest that's often a causal factor in those offences).

Couple more years til they get the AI working, and I'm buying. A long as she comes with a mute button.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Personally I think it's ridiculous that people can be prosecuted because they have a desire for an inanimate doll in the form of a child.
I dare say for many that doll would placate desires that otherwise could lead to unwanted sexual advances on real children.
For those who go on to offend those desires were present already and weren't the result of a doll.
