POLICE: SHARING FACEBOOK PORN VIDEO COULD LAND YOU IN JAIL

The Knoxville Police Department is joining law enforcement agencies nationwide to warn people of a child pornography video circulating the internet via Facebook.

KPD says several East Tennessee residents have reported receiving the video of a young girl and adult male in their Facebook inbox. Similar reports have been made in several other states as well.

Police warn that no one should share this video under any circumstances. Officers say sharing the video could be considered distribution of child pornography and could lead to criminal charges. KPD also warns sharing continues the victimization of the child in the video.

KPD says anyone who receives the video should notify Facebook immediately. The social media site will then notify the proper law enforcement agency. Officers say the Facebook is working to remove all links to the video.
