Over the past few days, five students at a Franklin high school have been charged with various felony counts of using a cell phone to possess and transmit pornography involving minors. The charges stem from an incident where a female student used a male student's cell phone to take pornographic pictures of herself in a school bathroom; the male student then forwarded those pictures to other students. The charges vary from student to student depending on how many images were found on each student's cell phone. Currently, there are no federal or state laws concerning sexting; since prosecutors are unsure as to how to handle such incidents, some have been charging offenders with misdemeanor obscenity charges instead of felonies.
