State police have confiscated two computer hard drives from the Griswold Middle School after the parent of a 12-year-old student found a picture of a man's erect penis in her daughter's back pack.
Her daughter, a high honors student who has not been in trouble before, printed the black and white picture out on the printer in the middle school library after a man she had been instant messaging on the school computers sent it to her, along with his home phone number.
"We were completely shocked," the mother said. "Parents assume, I assumed, that the Internet at school was blocked from harmful material. That isn't the case."
After the mother contacted the school, school officials were able to pinpoint the exact time the picture was printed and confirm that the incident happened at school. They also called state police who are investigating the case.
