What is the name of your state? Texas
I was divorced in December of 2001. Sometime during the summer of 2001(I don't remember exactly when) My ex-wife, then my estranged wife, got into my email account and read an email I sent to a friend. She then showed it to her mother, who then told my mother about it. She got into my account using the password which she knew (only because I had the same password for everything) but she absolutely did not have permission to get into my email. We had never shared that account in the past. I know that is a violation of Texas Penal code 16.02 and also the US Code Title 18 Part 1 Ch.119 p2511, but the Texas Crime carries a much higher penalty. Can I have both state and federal charges filed against her, or just one? and how do you go about filing federal charges against someone?
