County sexting case deferral expands to 38 students
Finney County Attorney opts for a deferral program rather than charging 38 Garden City High School students in a sexting investigation. Police previously sought charges against six juveniles for sending nude pictures via cell phones, with victims aged 14 to 16 and incidents dating from 2013 to 2014. The case now spans 32 additional students, with no final charges pursued.
