Without her knowledge, a Citadel cadet posted a 17-year-old Georgia girl's name and phone number alongside an explicit photograph on the pornographic website Sexingpics.com.
After receiving a creepy text message from a 55-year-old man from Iowa, Kelsey Upton knew something wasn't right. Her father, a federal investigator, traced the posting back to a Citadel cadet who turned out to be an ex-boyfriend of one of Upton's friends.
Surprisingly, the Uptons found that no actual crime had been committed and are now telling their story to media outlets and plan to meet with legislators and other public officials in hopes of making such actions a crime.
You can watch a video of Kelsey and her father discussing the incident on CBS's The Early Show, then hop over to The Post and Courier for more in-depth reporting.
