Nude photos and/or sex videos shouldn’t be required in any relationship.
Maricel (not her real name) learned this the hard way when she broke up with her boyfriend in Jul 2015. Her boyfriend, whom we shall call Mr. Wrong (his real name has been revealed in a news report but to protect Maricel’s identity we are not using it), kept asking her to patch things up.
When she refused, he threatened to release her nude photos (which she had privately sent to him before the demise of their relationship) on social media.
Sure enough, when Maricel didn’t give in to Mr. Wrong’s demands, he followed through on his disgusting threat by uploading to Facebook, YouTube and Instagram more than 10 of her nude photos last Apr 6, 2016.
Maricel sought the help of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Cybercrime Division, who set up an entrapment operation targeting Mr. Wrong at a motel in Mandaluyong City on Tue, Apr 26.
“The suspect said he only published the photos online for one hour and only a few people viewed it. But Vic Lorenzo, executive officer of the NBI Cybercrime Division, pointed out that the suspect he still violated the Anti-Cybercrime Law and the Anti-Violence Against Women laws,” reports ABS-CBN News.
The report noted: “Mr. Wrong tried to settle the case amicably with Maricel, but the victim decided to pursue a case against him.”
