"To confirm, we do have an employee who appears in some photos that have been compromised and made digitally available. This employee has been put on Administrative Leave while the matter is being investigated. While this investigation happens, it is our goal to have minimal disruption here at the school. Parents, Faculty and Staff have all been notified. Due to the sensitive nature of this investigation, and out of respect for this person's family, no additional details are available at this time."My instincts are to protect the victims of a crime. It's the right thing to do. When you punish a victim instead of offering support, often in the name of some subjective moral standard, you punish the innocent. Is that right? I don’t think so. Parents be damned. Let’s what is right for the victim.

***Update 2/2/2014
A retraction of sorts: The victim, Jamie Climie, lied about the reason she took the selfie and the theft of her cell phone. She was having an affair with a married man and her phone was not stolen, she sent the photo herself. Related post: Damn Liars! Christians drive me nuts!

1. This makes the CHCA look cruel and bad, and will help steer people away from them -- so why are you trying to stop it by getting people to complain until they behave decently? There are more than enough problems in the world which WON'T go away if ignored and towards which you could be devoting your energies. Let the Christian Academies show everyone how vile they are, so that they lose their students, and in time they will die out. That's a GOOD thing.
2. "The possession of a dangerous instrument is, in itself, a danger." People need to learn not to leave compromising stuff on their phones, the same way they learn not to leave car doors unlocked. Phones get lost and stolen quite frequently. This particular crime isn't a novelty any more, and hasn't been for years now -- and don't try the "but she's a chiiiiiiild" defense. She's 15; claiming she's a child is denying the brains and social experience she undoubtedly has. Unlike actual rape, she really DID have the ability to make sure this couldn't happen to her -- just by deleting those photos! (Or even -- here's an amazing idea! -- not taking them in the first place!) I don't have much sympathy for gun owners who get shot with their own guns, either.
