Viewers started contacting us weeks ago, sickened by what they saw and how many teens were sharing it.
“You have to have control of what your kid is seeing on Facebook because this stuff is there”, said Veronica Valadez
Most of the teens are simply commenting on the video, calling it disgusting or asking who would do that? By commenting, the video keeps spreading. It’s all over the Mid South and spreading across the country.
Police say the people sharing the video are distributing child porn. It’s just like when website publisher Thaddeus Matthews shared a video on his website and got arrested; only now teenagers are finding themselves in the same boat.
“When you share that video or an image of that nature, that’s illegal you’re not helping anyone”, said Lt. Winton Cleveland of the Memphis Police Department
School systems across the country are warning teens. Memphis Schools have not taken that step.
