Q: I sent someone I met online some nude pictures of myself to his cellphone. After breaking up with him because...
...I realised he was violent, I broke up with him. After ignoring his texts and calls he sent the compromising photos to my ex-husband on Facebook in a post that was public. My son and his friends saw these photos before my ex deleted them. I deactivated my Facebook account but he apparently took a screenshot of all my friends and so now I face the fear of him doing the same thing again at any time. I don't know where he is located because we only talked on the phone for a couple of weeks. If I request a restraining order he could find out my address and I would have to see him in person which would be even more dangerous. What do I do? I'm absolutely shattered and humiliated. Please help me
A:
File a complaint with the police. This is a crime in most states. That should be enough to stop him, but you can always file a restraining order if necessary. Good luck!
