Leaked photos of Wisconsin women's volleyball team originated from player's phone

 ABOUT POST 

 A report previously stated that photos originated from one of the players' phones, a fact UWPD Executive Director of Communications Marc Lovicott confirmed to Fox News Digital on Thursday.

"The focus of our investigation is not on any of the student athletes," Lovicott said in an email. 

The university’s statement last week stated that photos and video, which were "never intended to be shared publicly," were being posted on the internet, prompting players to contact the police.

"The unauthorized sharing is a significant and wrongful invasion of the student-athletes' privacy, including potential violations of university policies and criminal statutes," the statement read. 

"UWPD is investigating multiple crimes, including sharing sensitive photos without consent. UWPD is not investigating the volley ball student athletes  for wrongdoing in this matter. Our top priority is supporting our student-athletes and we are providing them with the appropriate services and resources."
