A provincial court judge in Victoria, B.C., has found a 17-year-old Saanich girl guilty of distributing child porn for "sexting" pictures of her boyfriend's ex.
The teen was convicted of possessing and distributing child pornography and uttering threats. It is believed to be the first time in Canada a teenager has been convicted of pornography offences related to so-called "sexting."
The case had all the hallmarks of a modern-day teenage drama: a jealous new girlfriend, intimate photos of her boyfriend's former girlfriend and text messaging.

My high school class was sexting revenge porn before it was even an organized concept or even a word.
Nothing new here, IMO.
It's good to see it's being taken seriously. I think they should also charge the BF and the exGF as well for production and possession, if possible.

Damn, once again I'm behind the times.
Pardon me while I sulk and listen to my walkman.
