He would probably not be charged with anything unless he took the picture inside a restroom or other private place. Generally speaking, anyone can take a photograph or video of anyone else in a public place where there is no expectation of privacy, like a grocery store aisle.

Each county in Texas has it's own website. On most web sites, you can get basic access to the court records of criminal cases. If the county you are concerned with does not have such access, you can go to the Clerk's office and ask for a print out of any charges against anyone.
Good Luck!

If CPS received a report that your 14 yr old son sexually assaulted your 6 yr old son, they have a legal obligation to investigate it. This is true even if they received another report that your 14 yr old son sexually assaulted a girl at school.
