There is a school I know of where this occurred, but with one minor complication--the male student who received the pictures was over 18. Kids were unaware of the implications of "sexting" and the consequences. While it's a harsh consequence to be labeled as a sex offender, there ought to be a harsh consequence, though I'm not this consequence is the right one. We ought to figure out a better way to deal with these cases, and we ought to start talking about it so that kids do know the consequences of such actions.
It's a clear example of cultural lag--the laws haven't yet caught up with the technology.
