"The posting of images to websites with the intent to terrorize, frighten, intimidate, harass, or molest is a crime. Investigators will aggressively pursue these matters to the full extent of the law. The Farmington Hills Police Department approaches all issues involving our residents, including our students and youth, with a victim-centered focus, providing the highest level of discretion, thoroughness, and professionalism. As in every case, a criminal charge is merely an accusation, and the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty," King said.
