Two teenage girls in Florida have been charged with aggravated stalking of a minor younger than 16.
The girls who apparently may have thought it to be an amusing prank didn’t consider the consequences when they allegedly pasted a high school classmate’s head on top a nude photo of an unidentified young woman and posted it on with fake Facebook account under her name.
Naples Daily News reports that the girls, age 15 and 16 respectively, have been charged under a strengthened 2008 state law intended to prevent cyber bullying of teens.
According to a Herald Tribune article published in 2007, the law, known as the Jeffrey Johnston Stand Up for All Students Act, obligates schools to address cyber bullying and give them the power to punish students participating in such conduct at home.
In addition to the nude body shot, the fake Facebook page reportedly contained a photo of male genitalia near the high school student’s mouth.
