The statistics vary wildly when it comes to teens exchanging sexual photos of themselves in 2009, 4 percent of teens told a Pew survey they had sent sexually suggestive images, while 15 percent said they had received them. Police often have to tackle the issue of nude photos going public, and often with teens. They say the collection of photos goes back more than three years and features dozens of minors. Investigators have since taken over the Dropbox account, and nobody else can get to the files. Unfortunately, that led to unintentionally destroying evidence in the criminal case, though someone likely still has the deleted files on their personal computer or smartphone. She implored him to stop and even threatened to kill herself.īoone High School Principal Kris Byam then found out about the Dropbox account and asked a student with access to it to delete the photos. Then, he insisted she have sex with him in his van or in school, or else he would show people the naked photo.

According to the Register, the classmate told her principal that she sent him a nude photo after he requested it, but then he kept "begging" for more. The 15-year-old boy was arrested last month on suspicion of extortion. He then put the images into a Dropbox account where more than 100 classmates could see them and add other photos, the Des Moines Register reports. An Iowa high schooler pressured his female classmate to send nude photos to him, then threatened to release them if she didn't have sex with him, according to police.
