ACLU Wins, No Sexting Charges For NJ Teens

Following up on the "sexting" case we've discussed in recent days, oliphaunt sends word from the Times-Tribune that a New Jersey federal judge has ordered the prosecutor not to file charges in the cases of three teenage girls whose cell phones were confiscated. "Wyoming [NJ] County District Attorney George Skumanick Jr. cannot charge three teenage girls who appeared in photographs seminude traded by classmates last year, a judge ruled Monday. US District Judge James M. Munley granted a request by the American Civil Liberties Union to temporarily stop Mr. Skumanick from filing felony charges against the Tunkhannock Area School District students."

Thanks for the math contribution. Where would we be without your mad skills?

You'll surely note that I said my case had five different court appearances and the GP's had one. Hence I think my question was valid. Now bugger off unless you have something meaningful to say.

dear fiscal conservatives and republitards: why exactly do you want to privatize and deregulate everything?

"bloated government bureaucracy... blah blah blah... welfare queens... blah blah blah"

i'll take being taxed a little more for adequate healthcare for middle class people

wake. the. fuck. up. conservatives.

your ideology is dead

I find it amazing/annoying that more than half of your post is an offtopic rant about political issues that have zero to do with the article yet you stand at +5 right now. One wonders if a Conservative ranting about political issues that have nothing to do with the article would be given the same treatment or if his post would be sitting at -1 right now?

Re:NJ? Really?

A little Googling will confirm that "{state} Federal Judge" is a pretty common idiom

And a little googling will confirm that this particular Judge is in the federal district of Central PA.

What's your fucking point? That the term "${state}" federal judge is current, according to Google, ignoring the fact that if you Goolge the fucking judge's name you discover *gasp* that he's not in NJ?

Fuck your family in the mouth. I hope you and your whole family dies of cancer. (not really, I'm just drunk and ranty)

it was made possible by republican/conservative ideology

Er, perpetrated by government people with government power. And somehow you think giving government more power will reduce this sort of thing?
