Carlyle RCMP are assisting Fillmore RCMP in regards to a photo taken by a youth of another youth without clothes. This is a criminal offence and under the law is regarded as child pornography – print, publish, or make; so, when one youth takes a photo and sends it to another youth it is classified as such.
“Once something is up on the internet, it’s there,” Staff Sargent Darren Simons stated. “There’s things like Snapchat as well, that the photo ‘disappears,’ but people can take a screenshot of what you send and it doesn’t just disappear.”
