Canon City, Colorado 

A shitty city that is known for a huge sexting scandal in 2016 where the high school and middle school girls, some as young as 12, gave out pics and porn and nudes of themselves to all the guys. The pics were collected and traded like baseball cards. Someone at the school didn't want to be a porn star so she blew the whistle on the whole thing. Some of the older guys got suspended for having pics of the 12 year olds but all criminal charges were dropped because nobody in the school really gave a shit.
