MEMPHIS, TN (abc24.com) - Video of an underage girl performing oral sex on another teen at school has gone viral, and Memphis Police are now investigating.

The video was quickly removed from YouTube.com, but not before it was seen by teens across the country.

Police say they don’t know who the girl is or what school she attends, but for this teen, the consequences could be very adult.

There are page after page of YouTube links talking about the now disabled video.

15-year-old Memphis City Schools student, Octavia says, the video is "spreading like wildfire, its all over YouTube. And Twitter and Facebook are going crazy."

The video's not just spreading online. 14-year-old MCS student Russell says, "In lunch I heard about this girl she was doing bad stuff."

Octavia says it's the talk of school, "My classmates were talking about it today, they were like did you see the video on Facebook?"

Octavia didn't see the video.  She says she didn't want to. However its viral status is enough to even get her talking.

"People who do things like that, they need to to think about, what would your mom think? What would your parents think? Your friends? Your superiors?"

Police say one huge concern with the video is that it's YouTube title identifies a certain 14-year-old Memphis City School student. But police say the girl named may not be the same one in the video. Russell says her name is already being tarnished.

"Put it up on the web it will mess up her reputation. It will be a hard life for her."

A Memphis City Schools spokesperson says the district is concerned about the video, but "there is no indication it was on a MCS campus or if MCS students were involved."

If an MCS student is involved in the video, the spokesperson says they will be punished accordingly.

Other police departments in the Mid-South are also investigating the video.

Big Deal.. Like they are not aware of the Condoms laying all around the school yards and in all the least traveled places.What makes this so shocking to everybody,14 year olds are having babies and dont get arrested,so why is having sex so criminal. If anything,the one that did the taping should be in trouble. That's what was done without her consent,maybe if the detectives would hire him,everybody would see that she is not the only 14 year old doing this. One might be living with you,and trust me you will be the last to know. Queen

This was the logical next step. Rap, hip-hop, some rock music push sex on every video, radio, and lyric. Commercials and ads leave little to the imagination. Some of these 'little' girls look well beyond 14, and dress to show it. So as cultures go, it was only a matter of time before teen, human, sexuality went to the next level. But don't insult us by "claiming" to be shocked. Teens have been having sex for years, decades now. Now they are wanting to show not just their stuff, but what they can do with it. It has consequences, most all negative. Many of which they haven't thought about. Liberals are gona want to impose new laws on the parents, and being mindless they think this will solve the problem. But the truth is you can't stop teens from having sex, or drinking, or taping themselves. Parents need to educate their kids, not be prosecuted by idiots. Parents are arrested for their kids smoking, and drinking, and skipping school. But they are also arrested for spanking their kids. This is why government doesn't work, and needs to be put back in its place. We live in a new society where God is being outlawed, parents sent to jail for their kids, and we have an out-of-control government that can't run itself dictating every aspect of our lives. How do you think it's gonna end? So they identify these kids, then what? Bring more attention to them. Arrest the parents? Investigate the school? Make arrests there? Lots of publicity, people's livelihoods and reputations ruined, all over a video that none of them knew existed. Will any of this stop it from happening again?

Something else to consider - Colleges and future employers could search for the names of either of the kids in the video. THAT could be a stumbling block during an interview! Kids today don't understand that though they can make choices, they do not get to choose the consequences. There is more than one guilty party in this case. I pray that everyone involved continues to get caught (quickly!) when they make stupid choices, until they stop making them. Lord, help these kids and their families!
