An eighth grade student has been charged with a felony after he allegedly hacked into the computer of a teacher he didn't like and changed his desktop background. Domanik Green, 14, has been accused of accessing the staff member's laptop at Paul R. Smith Middle School in Holiday, Florida, without permission by using an administrator's password to alter the image to two men kissing. The Pasco County Sheriff's office have claimed he illicitly made his way into the encrypted system, had access to personal files and could have altered his classmates' grades, but the youngster maintains it was an innocent prank. He was arrested on Wednesday and detained at the Land O'Lakes Detention Center until he was released into the custody of his mother later the same day. Charged: Domanik Green, 14, allegedly accessed a computer at Paul R. Smith Middle School in Holiday, Florida, without permission by using an administrator's password to alter the image to two men kissing . According to the Tampa Bay Times Sheriff Chris Nocco said: 'Even though some might say this is just a teenage prank, who knows what this teenager might have done.' During an interview with ABC Action News, for which his mother said he could be identified, he said: 'I wasn't really thinking. I was just kind of annoyed at the teacher that day. He added: 'When I logged on and put the picture up, I was trying to annoy my teacher. Green managed to get into the teacher's laptop by sharing his screen. He then took a picture from Google images and enlarged it. 'But when logging onto the FCAT, I logged onto the wrong computer,' he added. 'I was trying to talk to my friend through another computer, that way I didn't get caught with my phone out or anything in class.' Green was also suspended for three days last year for a similar act. He and a number of other students got hold of the password. Booked: He was arrested on Wednesday and detained at the Land O'Lakes Detention Center (pictured) until he was released into the custody of his mother. The youngster says he saw a teacher type it in and was easy to remember, as it was a faculty member's last name. Green has been charged with 'offense against computer system, unauthorized access' which is a 3rd Degree Felony. He is also suspended from school for 10 days and is being transferred to a different school.
