Views expressed in opinion columns are the author’s own. If you tried out for a high school sports team and got placed on the junior varsity team instead of varsity, you would be angry, right? Let’s say you vented about how much you hate the team and school on your Snapchat story. That seems pretty normal. But, what if someone showed the post to your coach and you were suspended from the team for a whole year?  A high school cheerleader was suspended from playing sports for doing just that. Now, she could become a champion for students’ free speech rights. Brandi Levy, a student at Mahanoy Area High School in Pennsylvania, tried out for her school’s varsity cheerleading team but instead ended up on the JV team. Upset with her placement, she posted a photo of her middle finger and the phrases “F— school, f— softball, f— cheer, f— everything,” on her Snapchat story.  This case brings forward an incredibly important issue: students should not have their entire lives controlled by their schools. While students do have fewer rights than adults, that does not mean all of their freedoms should be stripped away — especially when they are not…

by: Nexstar Media Wire Posted: May 4, 2021 / 03:33 PM PDT / Updated: May 4, 2021 / 03:59 PM PDT (AP Photo/Gerald Herbert, File ) (NEXSTAR) – Donald Trump unveiled what his team is calling a new “communications platform” Tuesday. The subsection of his existing website is called “From the Desk of Donald J. Trump,” and it relays the former president’s thoughts in a blog format. According to team Trump, the outlet will enable the former president to continue sharing his thoughts and opinions despite being blocked indefinitely from Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and Snapchat. “In a time of silence and lies, a beacon of freedom arises. A place to speak freely and safely. Straight from the desk of Donald J. Trump,” text on a video announcing the launch reads. According to Fox News, the tool allows Trump to post, which followers can share to Facebook and Twitter, though they’re unable to reply or post themselves. “This is just a one-way communication,” one source familiar with the platform told Fox News. “This system allows Trump to communicate with his followers.”  On social media, many were quick to point out that the “platform” is no more than a blog. Let me…

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A Lee's Summit female soccer coach is on administrative leave following allegations of sexual abuse involving an underage male student.The school district has confirmed Jessica Rae Rathbun was a paraprofessional and assistant girls' and boys' soccer coach at Lee's Summit North High School.An attorney representing her alleged victim says Rathbun sent the then-16 year old boy pictures over a period of several months, starting in September.According to a Missouri Department of Social Services investigation report, those pictures sent via social media site Snapchat included shots of Rathbun "in her bra and underwear lying in bed." She's also accused of asking the teen to "send her pictures of him getting into the shower," which he says he did not do. She also allegedly told the boy "she would have sex with him after he graduated."That same report notes Rathbun "admitted to sending pictures" through Snapchat, but "denied intentionally sending photos in her bra and underwear." Instead, she claimed it was possible she accidentally sent some of those photos. She also "denied telling the student she would have sex with him."The boy's attorney, Danny Thomas with Humphrey, Farrington, & McClain, P.C. says this type of behavior can have…

In 1969, the Supreme Court recognized both that students do not surrender their First Amendment rights at the schoolhouse gates, but that schools do have the right to discipline students for speech that could cause substantial disruptions. In the landmark case of Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District, the Supreme Court held that public school officials can regulate their students’ speech if those expressions of opinion would “materially and substantially interfere” with school operations. This standard, known as the Tinker test, has been the lodestar by which courts have weighed students’ First Amendment rights versus schools’ rights to curtail problematic speech ever since. But a case involving Snapchat, cheerleading, and a disgruntled student has the potential to extend Tinker’s holding far beyond the schoolhouse gates and into the realm of social media. On Wednesday, April 28, 2021, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Mahanoy Area School District v. B.L., a case that many thought could have potentially monumental effects on the regulation of off-campus speech as relates to schools and social media. The case centers on Brandi Levy—the titular B.L.— who, while a student at a public high school in Pennsylvania, tried out for her school’s varsity…

Home / News / Crime and Courts Mazin M. Mohamedali IOWA CITY — A local one-time Black Lives Matter movement leader whose apartment was the site of a fatal shooting tried to deter the investigation, police said. Quincy Russom, 19, was found dead inside 615 S. Governor St., No. 6, the home of 20-year-old Mazin M. Mohamedali, at 7:53 p.m. Feb. 1. Police said 30 minutes transpired between the time Russom was killed and the time police were notified. In a new criminal complaint, police allege Mohamedali had specific knowledge that Sammy Hamed, 22, had murdered Russom and waited to call 911. Police said Mohamedali lied during questioning, gave false descriptions of people involved and withheld other information that would have led police to Hamed more quickly. Hamed was arrested later that month and faces a first-degree murder charge. The criminal complaint alleges Mohamedali deleted his call history and Snapchat from his phone. In a recorded conversation, Mohamedali allegedly admitted to lying to police about the homicide and who was involved so police would not find out about the origin of guns tied to the investigation, police said. Mohamedali faces one count of accessory after the fact, an aggravated misdemeanor.…

In a case that began with a teenager’s Snapchat rant against her cheerleading squad, the Supreme Court on Wednesday considered whether and when a school can punish students for what they say online when they aren’t in school. We hope that the court will say: very rarely.In 2017 a student known in court filings as B.L. was upset when she failed to make the varsity cheerleading team at a Pennsylvania school. Away from school she posted on Snapchat a photo of her and a friend giving the middle finger. Accompanying the photo was this message: “F— school, F— softball, F— cheer, F— everything.”Snapchat is designed to delete messages once they’re seen, but a screenshot of B.L.’s rant was shown to her cheerleading coaches. She was suspended from the JV team. B.L. sued, alleging the school violated her free speech rights. The U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia agreed, ruling that the school couldn’t punish her for “off-campus speech.”In Tinker v. Des Moines School District, a landmark 1969 decision involving students who came to school wearing black armbands to protest the Vietnam War, the court declared that students in public schools don’t leave their free speech rights at the…
