Wow. I read the article and the guy doing it also did to other women, including the stalker's own underage relative. Luckily, the sisters were able to get him sent to prison.

But one of the things that really pisses me off is that the ex-boyfriend of one of the sisters sent MORE images to the stalker.

Like, the stalker already had some, and this fuckwad sent him MORE.

And he got off the hook because he said he was sorry and was only doing it to "gain the stalker's trust".

Basically, he supposedly didn't do it out of malice (just overwhelming monumental stupidity...which I don't believe, I think he just got lucky by saying sorry and by the laws in the books worded in such a way that BAD intent was necessary for it to be a crime). They settled with him in court later on, but the idea that someone could send a stalker nudes of their GF/ex-gf and get out of it by acting like it wasn't a malicious act but "only trying to help" is infuriating. That loophole definitely needs to be closed.
