One of the high school students at the center of the “sexting” controversy in Wyoming County has agreed to a partial settlement of a civil rights suit that said her constitutional rights were violated when a principal confiscated her cell phone, found nude images she had taken of herself and turned it over to prosecutors.
Under the terms of the settlement, the Tunkhannock Area School District in Northeastern Pennsylvania agreed to pay $33,000, but admitted to no wrongdoing. However, the plaintiff, who is identified in court papers only as N.N., has not settled her claims against the Wyoming County District Attorney’s Office.
