World of Warcraft player sends nude photos to 14-year-old boy

The online community of World of Warcraft has led to a minor coming into possession of a 30-year-old’s nude photos.

Lauren S. Tilo, a high school assistant principal was arrested on Thursday, May 20 on charges of transmitting materials harmful to a minor from her home in Tampa, Florida.

According to deputies, the 14-year-old boy in Manatee County has never met Tilo face to face, although they met online via World of Warcraft in February.

On March 7, Tilo sent the minor a picture of herself in “provocative and sexual poses,” as told from a school guidance counselor who learned of the information from the victim on May 19.

The Manatee sheriff spokeman Dave Bristow explained, “There was something that upset him and he decided to step forward.”

This isn’t the first time an educator from the high school has been charged with a sex-related crime involving a minor. Christina Butler, a 33-year-old special education teacher, pleaded guilty to having sex with a 16-year-old boy up to a dozen times and received probation for the act.

On the subject of disciplinary action from the school, Hillsborough County School District spokeswoman Linda Cobbe said, “In all likelihood she will be suspended with pay, and if she remains charged then the School Board will suspend her without pay.”

In the mean time, Manatee deputies are investigating further to determine if there are more victims.
