Child Porn?

Fort Bend principal placed on leave over e-mailed photos

A Fort Bend Independent School District elementary school principal has been placed on administrative leave after she admitted sending e-mails containing photographs of children, school district officials said Friday.

"The pictures are not pornographic," said school district spokeswoman Mary Ann Simpson

Ann Sandoval, the principal at Ridgegate Elementary School, used her home computer to send the e-mails to school staff members, Simpson said.

Simpson said the photographs contain such images as young boys urinating into flower pots. She said the children appeared to be 3 to 5 years old.

"She thought they were funny and saw no harm in it and didn't mean to offend anybody," Simpson said.


Funny eh? Perhaps to some, but I prefer The Colbert Report myself. If she's going with the humor defense she should have had better common sense. What would happen in a role reversal w/ a male principal sending the same pictures of little girls.
