Doubt many people remember this but back in the mid 1980s there was a huge shit-storm to hit K-mart, seems a young couple had been bringing their film for development there on a regular basis.

Seems a few young men working in that department were copying the negatives and distributing the couple's very explicit photos on a wide basis.

After seeing their photos printed in a regional swingers magazine, the couple hired an attorney and won a considerable settlement against the store.

I recall this story carried on one of the major network news broadcasts and carried in a few newspapers.
