Teens Get Porn Shock During Blood Bank Presentation(Sept. 12) -- More than 400 students from Norwin High School in western Pennsylvania got an unexpected eyeful Friday, when a big screen presentation on the importance of donating blood suddenly turned into an X-rated slideshow.
The hardcore images -- described by students as gay pornography, according to the Pittsburgh Post Gazette -- were stored on a portable flash drive owned by a Central Blood Bank employee. That USB stick also contained the safe-for-all-ages PowerPoint presentation. But unfortunately, the Gazette noted, when Assistant Principal Tim Kotch plugged the drive into a computer, he unwittingly clicked on the wrong file, causing several explicit photos to appear on the school's giant TV screen.
"That's what popped up, but I don't think [the Central Blood Bank employee] realized that was on there at the time, and he was truly embarrassed for what happened," student Dan Jones told the TV news show. "He was just shocked. He, like, put his hand on the stage and covered his head. He was so ashamed of himself for having that."
The parents thinking about suing, need to be slapped. The lawyer? Dunked in hot jello and fed to starving cats.Those hardcore images may have caused snickers among the students, but they look certain to result in the Central Blood Bank being hit with a seriously hefty lawsuit. "They tell me it lasted about 30 seconds, which is a long time," attorney Peter J. Payne, who has been hired by parents of several students who attended the presentation, told Channel 4. "Every parent that I've talked to is very concerned. We're still talking about the senior class, but these kids are 17, 18 years old at the most."
How would they show damages?
And the blood bank has no assets.
Sounds like local news reporter overzealous speculation.
Some people just never think to keep you porn and your presentations stored on separate disks.
I'm tempted to use this in my sig.The lawyer? Dunked in hot jello and fed to starving cats.
Damnit, it won't fit after my current sig.Feel free I grant permission
It may have been an honest mistake, but it was also a stupid mistake.obviously an honest mistake, having something as embarrassing as that happen to you is bad enough. No need to contemplate suing, I think that is a bit over the top.

They're after blood. :lamo
I'll bet you anything that the vast majority of these kids have already seen porn.
I agree that any parent wants to file suit are off base. However it is grounds for charges of distributing pornography to miner children.
I do believe the school should be sued. It's irresponsible for someone to save gay porn on a company flash drive. Not only that, but it's a violation of laws regarding pornographic content. The school screwed up and should be sued for their actions.
