A 16-year-old student had 2,007 followers on her Instagram account when one day she saw that someone had changed her profile and that they had replaced her photo with a porn advertisement and introduced a comment about her sexual preferences in her biography. The injured woman soon tied up the dots and remembered that she had forgotten her cell phone in her classroom at the institute, and then it had been stolen.
The events date back to 11:55 a.m. on April 16, 2018. The police made inquiries and discovered that the intruder was a classmate from the institute, of legal age, who had entered the fourth-year ESO classroom, which was not locked and hurt the mobile. Since the phone did not have a lock key, he accessed the installed Instagram application. He entered the account of the user and a friend, deleted the public photo of the teenager and replaced it with a female body in a pornographic position. The result was visible on his public profile on the social network.
Now, the author faces 30 months in prison and a fine of 900 euros. They accuse him of the crimes of petty theft, against privacy and against moral integrity. The Prosecutor asks that, in addition, it compensate the victim with 500 euros for the moral damages suffered. The trial will be held next week in the Criminal Court number 2 of Vigo.
The Prosecutor says that the accused invaded the most personal and intimate sphere of the minor as well as became aware of the personal data it contained.
