HALIFAX (NEWS1130) – Two teenagers will appear in a Halifax provincial court today for a hearing on child porn charges related to the Rehtaeh Parsons case.
The two young men — who cannot be identified because of their age — are charged with distributing child pornography, with one suspect also charged with making child pornography.
Seventeen-year-old Parsons hanged herself last April after enduring what her family said was months of harassment after a photo of her alleged sexual assault was shared amongst her classmates.
Her death sparked a national discussion on cyberbullying.
