Facebook Photos Land Eden Prairie Kids in Trouble

slim-t writes "The Star Tribune is reporting that students have been disciplined for photos of them on Facebook. 'Eden Prairie High School administrators have reprimanded more than 100 students and suspended some from sports and other extracurricular activities after obtaining Facebook photos of students partying, several students said Tuesday.' Is the school right to do this? My opinion is that the students should know not to post pictures of yourself breaking the law." I'd just like to know what all those administrators are doing cruising Facebook pages looking at the students in their school.

It also looks like we've gone from "read the fucking story" to "try to find hidden meaning where none exists." Jesus Christ Almighty, Slashdot has turned into a gaggle of retards. Listen: they committed crimes, brought evidence to school, used monitored equipment to crow about what they did, and they got caught. It's amazing how many of you are assigning your own version of what happened to an event you're so far removed from that it hasn't affected your life in the slightest. Next time, make sure you have more information, or at the very least some insightful and pertinent or even funny story before you post, ok?
