If he uploaded it without using school resources it's out of school jurisdiction. Otherwise we'd have to punish the female involved for producing and distributing CP and expell them both.

The case does not cite whether the school WiFi network was used. The school does have a student network, so thats an angle. It was posted during school hours on property though.

Looking at what they are suing over:

1st amendment: Is distributing child pornography a protected free speech?
8th amendment: Not a chance.
No Child Left Behind: They may have a case here. The Alternative School is basically a pre-juvenile prison without the resources and quality of education of the home school.

My thought is that Mississippi has way too many attorneys. Who would take this case?

If he was physically on their property when he uploaded the image, he was distributing pornography at a school during school hours. I could be mistaken but I am confident courts have taken the stance that pornography in schools is not protected speech.

Also, people keep saying CP, and I admit I only skimmed the article, but where does it say the female in the image is a minor?
