LITTLE FALLS — A teenage boy sent nude pictures and sexually explicit videos of his ex-girlfriend to another girl, police said.

Now both the sender and the recipient are charged with distributing child pornography, authorities said.

A 16-year-old West Orange boy and a 16-year-old Little Falls girl were each charged with distributing child pornography under the state’s endangering the welfare of children statute, said Sgt. James Briggs of the Little Falls police.

The West Orange boy allegedly texted eight nude pictures of a 17-year-old Woodland Park girl to the Little Falls female, Briggs said. The Little Falls girl then showed the pictures to numerous other juveniles – and may have posted them to a social media site, police allege.

The Woodland Park girl is the ex-girlfriend of the West Orange boy, Briggs confirmed. Both teenage girls are students at Passaic Valley High School, the sergeant added.

The Little Falls girl also allegedly sent other videos and pictures of underage teenagers engaged in sexual acts to other local juveniles, Briggs said.

The Passaic County Prosecutor’s Office is also actively involved in the investigation this morning, and police are expecting addition arrests and charges, the sergeant added.

The Little Falls police are encouraging parents to monitor their children’s phone and social-media activities, Briggs said. Anyone with information or questions about the investigation is encouraged to call detectives at (973) 256-0200.
