(BLOOMINGTON) - Bloomington police and Bloomington High School North officials are investigating child pornography distribution among students.
According to Bloomington Police Sgt. Joe Crider, students are taking nude pictures and sending them to other students' cell phones.
So far police have found 14 images of unclothed students. The photos depict both boys and girls.
School administrators contacted police on February 25 reporting a student had photographed herself in the nude and shared the pictures among friends via her cell phone.
The school, police and juvenile probation are working together to investigate how many pictures exist and how many students are spreading them throughout the school.
No one faces any charges at the moment, Crider says, but police have confiscated some cell phones, deleting any pictures of child pornography.
Crider says their primary concern is to locate all the sources and eliminate the photos.
Anyone with additional information about the incident is to call Bloomington Detective Sarah Cranes at 812-349-3319.
