Some US schools cancel class pictures after online claims surrounding Epstein

Some U.S. school districts canceled class pictures after social media claims linked Lifetouch to a billionaire with ties to Jeffrey Epstein, which Lifetouch called 'completely false'.
Lifetouch CEO Ken Murphy stated that student images taken by Lifetouch photographers are safeguarded exclusively for families and schools, with no exceptions.
Murphy emphasized that student privacy and data protection are central to Lifetouch's operations and described the online claims as 'false and misleading'.
Murphy clarified that neither Apollo nor its funds are involved in Lifetouch's daily operations or have access to any student images, and that the Epstein files contain no allegations involving Lifetouch or its use of student images.
