In a statement sure to defuse the situation, the Maryville, MO Sheriff who was on the case originally calls Anonymous "cowards," tells them to "get jobs and move out of their parents' basements."
The consequences will never be the same?

I'm sure he's already started the backtrace.

My husband never did, and his public school talk was all about abstinence and deodorants. He went through anatomy books at the library.
Same here, sort of. I learned all about sex from library books. One day my mom asked me, "So... you already know how it all works, right?" And I said, "Yep." And that was my "talk."
I'd say my health class covered a lot.
My wife grew up in the midwest though, so hers echoes your husband's.
Never happened to me. My parents are simply too conservative to approach the issue, so everything I know is from school. Uncoincidentally, this is probably why I've never had much success in knowing WHEN to ask someone on a date or knowing if someone is interested in me. I simply default to "She must want something, because people only do this to me when they want something."
An episode of Degrassi High had one of the characters talking about using a condom. I asked my mom what a condom was and she frankly answered my questions, because that's how she's always rolled. I was at the oldest 8. My parents were never shy about explaining things or using real terms for stuff. It was never my wee-wee, it was always my penis and other such stuff.
I have no idea how I learned. Probably from a book. Or three.
Our 3 (almost 4) year old is already going through science/anatomy books and asking us things like, "There's the baby?" (points to cross-section drawing of gestating child). "Yep," we reply. "And then it comes out of the penis?" he asks. "No, honey. Women don't have penises." Not sure he's clear on the whole gender thing, but he did say that I make a better bed than mommy because I'm not as bumpy.

5-year-old me who watched too much TV: "Mommy, what's sex?"
Mom: "Sex isn't something you shouldn't do for a very long time."
Then she left the room. Good talk, Mom.
