Three Adelaide schoolgirls are unlikely to face charges after uploading a risque video to YouTube, police say.
SA police confirmed on Wednesday that the incident had been referred to them by the education department and related to the inappropriate video posted by the students from the Mitcham Girls High School.
Police did not give details of the video, which attracted thousands of hits before it was removed.
However, the Adelaide Now website said it featured the three girls in school uniform talking about offering sexual encounters for money.
Police said they were yet to conduct formal interviews with each girl but considered the incident a stunt.
“At this time, it is unlikely the students will face criminal charges in relation to their actions,” police said in a statement.
“It appears the girls involved in this incident were participating in a stunt and unaware of the dangers and repercussions their action would have.”
Police said the incident was a reminder to both children and parents about the importance of online safety and that social networks were public forums where inappropriate actions could leave a digital legacy that could be very difficult to erase.”
