Student expelled for filming agression with his cameraphone

Last October several teenage girls beat up another teenager girl while others stood by and watched. One of them filmed the incident on his cameraphone and sent the clip around to his friends' phones.

He has just been dismissed from his school as the board of directors, supported by a federal court, judged that by filming and broadcasting the film, he played an active role. His friends who were passive onlookers . were reprimanded, but not dismissed.
