Your heart is in the right place, but this is the deep south. That action by a local would likely end in the sheriff's office kicking in your door with a no-knock raid, shooting your dog and maybe also you.
When powerless people (like the girl in this article) complain they are dismissed and treated with suspicion by the authorities.
When the authorities complain their peers respond rapidly and with excessive force.

Get sentenced to jail while the original person creating the deepfake of the student goes unpunished.
If I were serious I wouldn't be showing it to them in person 🤨
