A former teacher in the Corinth School District was arrested for using AI to generate non-consensual sexual videos of students aged 14 to 16. The educator allegedly sourced images of the students from social media to create the content. The activity was detected by the school district's internal internet filtering system, leading to an investigation by the Corinth Police Department and the FBI.
An educator in the Corinth School District of Mississippi, Wilson Jones, was arrested for allegedly using AI to generate child sexual abuse material (CSAM) of students.

Using AI systems to gain a personal advantage over others such as through cheating, fraud, scams, blackmail or targeted manipulation of beliefs or behavior. Examples include AI-facilitated plagiarism for research or education, impersonating a trusted or fake individual for illegitimate financial benefit, or creating humiliating or sexual imagery.
Also classified as
The incident involved the creation and exposure of highly toxic and illegal content, specifically child sexual abuse material (CSAM).
The teacher used AI to generate non-consensual sexual videos of specific students using their public social media likenesses, which constitutes targeted manipulation and creation of humiliating or sexual imagery.
Human
Due to a decision or action made by humans
Intentional
Due to an expected outcome from pursuing a goal
Post-deployment
Occurring after the AI model has been trained and deployed
The incident was caused by a human user who intentionally used a deployed AI system to generate non-consensual sexual content of minors.
Added categories peak at 3: Substantial (Child Sexual Exploitation & Abuse (CSEA), Direct)
A localized criminal incident involving a school teacher using AI to generate non-consensual sexual content of minors. While constituting a severe violation of individual rights and privacy, the national security impact is minor and manageable under standard domestic law enforcement frameworks.
The AI system was used as a tool by the teacher to perform a specific, user-directed function of generating videos from input images, without autonomous decision-making or planning.
Unacceptable Risk: The report describes an AI system being used to generate child sexual abuse material (CSAM), which is a severe violation of fundamental rights and poses significant dangers to society.
The AI system was used to morph existing social media photos of students into synthetic sexual videos, which is the primary function of deepfake video generation.
The reports provide clear, consistent details regarding the arrest, the charges, the AI's role in generating the morphed videos, and the source of the images. The facts are well-documented by law enforcement and school officials.

Internet filter flagged content after generation rather than blocking access.
Management
Delayed Reporting to Police
School management delayed reporting the incident to police for several months.
