Newfoundland Teen Sentenced To 18 Months Probation For Circulating Nude Photos Of Schoolmate

IANS, 29 Nov, 2016 12:42 PM
    CORNER BROOK, N.L. — A 16-year-old Newfoundland boy who circulated nude pictures of a 15-year-old female schoolmate has been sentenced to 18 months' probation for possession of child pornography.
     
    Judge Wayne Gorman says the boy asked for the photos, and then showed them to some students before sending them electronically to others.
     
    The judge says the actions had a significant impact on the teenage girl.
     
    He notes she says she can never get her old life back, and is now ashamed of her body.
     
    But Gorman accepted a joint submission from the Crown and defence saying there was insufficient evidence to establish that a violent offence had been committed.
     
    Under the sentence released Friday in Corner Brook provincial court, the teen must perform 25 hours of community service and submit a DNA sample.
