My ex-boyfriend is trying to blackmail me !!?

Question

We had a bad break-up last week. Police were involved because we were fighting and he hit me chocked me! Threw me across the room I was trying to defend myself .It got pretty nasty ! A week later today he calls me at work today saying he misses me and he can't live without me and wants to get back together I said no ! Then hours later he wanted me to replace his camera that he claims I lost when we were together at a party a few weeks ago ! The camera is expensive but I feel like I shouldn't have to replace it because we were together that night we both are responsible. He smashed my $300 cellphone in the wall knowing I didn't have insurance on it ! He said he's not gonna replace the phone. And he's gonna put naked pictures of me on myspace and all over my building. All tell everyone at my job I'm a w***e and I gave him an STD ! Now he's 39 and I'm 24 we been together for 3 and a half years. Engaged and the whole nine . He's turned on me so fast ! As I was going to file another complaint he texted me saying he wouldn't do that to me because he still loves me. But he still want money foe the camera ! What should I do ??? Because the police said they can't arrest him because he didn't say he was gonna kill me.

Answer 1

Ross J is right about it. If he ever tries to blackmail you by publishing your photos on the net, you tell him you have contact with a lawyer to not only sue him for "damages to property" for the cellphone but also to sue him for all he's worth in both criminal and civil court because of the pictures. He can't plead "freedom of speech" because you're a private individual and you have rights regarding your privacy. Research on what actors and actresses do against paparazzi you can use that as reference to the laws that you can use to fight back. Jeez guys like him give "real men" a bad name.

Answer 2

Does it matter that he claims he loves you?  If he is acting this way at 39 more than likely he will never change.  At 24 you need to move on change your number and stop talking to him.  If he post the pictures on the internet it is a crime and you can bring charges against him. Only you can end this but it sounds like you are not done yet - a lot of these types of stories end in death.  If you want to know where to get help email - then I'll know you are serious about moving on.  I will respect whatever decision you make via the email below

Answer 3

That's simple. Don't do anything. Don't talk to him. don't see him. Don't read his e-mails. Just delete him from your life. If he publishes your pictures you can sue the he!! out of him. Tell him to go ahead.

Answer 4

He sounds looney and immature. Get a restraining order!
