SEXTING SCANDAL

Snapchat ‘Child Porn’ at NJ High School

Students could face charges for sharing sexy selfies.

In high school there’s always a few girls who get in trouble for showing off their budding breasts. But in the age of smartphones and social media, teenagers exchanging nude photos might be hit with child-porn charges. That may be the fate of some students at a New Jersey high school, where two freshman girls sent naked pictures of themselves using the popular sharing app Snapchat, which deletes pictures almost immediately after another user receives them. Naturally, one tech-savvy young boy screengrabbed the images before they disappeared, uploaded them on Instagram, and exposed them to all eyes on the Internet in the process. Lesson learned? Probably not.
