Vulgar Instagram account raises cyber-bullying concerns
CABOT, Ark. (KTHV) - A vulgar social media page exploiting Cabot students is concerning police and parents about the dangers of cyber-bullying.
The page shows pictures of district students with grotesque hashtags and captions.
As many as 200 photos of 22 students and parents were posted the captions. The account has since been taken down but it's becoming more common as younger kids start exploring social media.
"There's a lot of victims when this happens," said Lonoke County Prosecutor Chuck Graham.
In today's world popularity can be summed up into one word: followers.
"Cute girls or whatever you know, what's your Instagram name? Yeah you know everyone's looking for some followers," said skateboarders Dillon Martella and Brandon McCutchen.
The two used to attend Cabot High School and post skateboarding videos among other things almost daily.
