I need some realistic money to show to my Girl Scout troop and I don't want to give them a bunch of real bills.

It is not against the law to photocopy money. Unless you plan on trying to use it, that is as you know, counterfeiting.
My suggestion is that if you are going to photocopy the fronts and backs do it on separate sheets of paper or do it on black and white so there can be no "misunderstanding".
The treasury dept has rules about color copying, http://www.moneyfactory.gov/newmoney/main.cfm/currency/regulations.

Yes especially if it is the same size and color.
You might find some other ideas at this website http://www.treas.gov/kids/
If you do decide to photo copy money then enlarge it and leave extra paper around it. Mark it as a photo copy.

No, I don't think it is illegal because it was consensual and she was of age. Some departments might have a problem because it could be embarrasing if the video (or knowledge of it) were to become public. It could conceivably hurt your credibility to testify in court (a good lawyer would have fun with this). Do you still have a relationship with this woman? (I hope you are good terms.) Having said that, we all (police chiefs, mayor and board members) have done stuff we should not have. It would probably be overlooked as a victimless, harmless incident due to lack of maturity.

I would think its ok... its not like a photo copy could even come close to looking like real money.... i would only print off the front though... not the back of it... so that way you wouldnt have to worry about anyone getting any ideas...

I believe you are required by law to enlarge it to 150% or larger, or reduce it below 75% of the size. It's also going to be kind of sketchy if you go to a photocopy place and want to use the color copiers, unless you tell them to do it and blow it up, because generally they know the regulations.

I believe it is OK to photocopy tender, but not a close copy (i.e. same size and color of ink). You can also write "Not Legal Tender" (i.e. like what's on play money) on the copies.

Sure even give the scout group a professional lesson on how to print it! The U.S. Treasury manufacturing cost to print any denomination $100.00 the highest has almost doubled since the early ninety's 2.5 cents now it is currently .4 cents per bill to manufacture, that's right which you have to slave-out yourself to get one of those $100.00 bills! Something not right is it!
