Dammit Richmond, get your shit together. First it was the Arthur Ash Statue, then it was Cloverleaf Mall, and now this…

The hard-hitting news team at the local ABC affiliate, WRIC 8, have found a new reason to terrify parents, and some genius at World Star Hiphop (the grey-water tank of the internet) snagged the video.

Turns out there’s a teen sexting ring out in Louisa County, with some of the girls in the photos being as young as 14. I’ll give you a second to clean the vomit off your shirt.

Anywho, it seems about 100 central VA teenagers have been connected to the ring, and more than 1,000 photos have been uncovered so far. Watch the video below and let the shame wash over you.
