Background:
Background: You can't make this stuff up.
A 15 year old student at Licking Valley High School in Newark, Licking County, Ohio has been charged with "possessing criminal tools and the illegal use of a minor in nudity-oriented material" for sending naked pictures of herself to friends via her cell phone.
The girl "had already been warned by school administrators about [what he called] "inappropriate cell phone behavior." "
Sounds funny? Well, maybe not so funny for the unnamed young woman. If convicted in juvenile court, she faces possible probation, juvenile detention center time, and, at the discretion of the judge, could be made to register as a sex offender.
And before you yell out that old Digg cry of "Pics or it didn't happen", the Licking County prosecutor is considering charges related to child pornography against the classmates who received the photos via their cell phone.
Only in Licking Valley. (I mean, what do they expect with a name like that?)
ABC News Oct 10 story
This question settles as Yes if there are reports of her being added to the Ohio sex offender registry related to this case before April 1 2009 (naturally), regardless of any other results of the charges. If there are no such reports, or if it's reported that all charges are dropped, or that the judge doesn't make her register, it settles as No.
