What is the name of your state? Arizona


I will try to give the Readers Digest version of this.

I was with a man for over 6 years. We lived together for 2 years. Last October we split up. We still saw each other. While we lived together I noticed a few pictures of myself, my sisters and nieces that he had scanned and put on our computer. These were very old pictures-- about 15 -20 years old. I questioned him about them. He told me he was going to try to put them on disc for me. I let it drop but I deleted the pictures. About 2 months ago I was at his house. While he was sleeping I was on his computer. I took a look and what do you think I found? About 25 old pictures of myself, my sisters and my young nieces. He even titled some of them with dirty words. One picture had my ex husband in it and he took the time to crop him out. I was a bit shocked as he did not have permission to have these and he had to have taken the originals from my house as the computer they were on was never in our home when we lived together.

I thought about this overnight and returned to his home the next day. I confronted him with this. He denied having any pictures on his computer yet would not allow me to walk into his computer room to prove this to me. I went home and looked in old photo albums and could see where the pictures had been removed. I left it at that as this man is the worlds biggest liar. I told my sisters about this and they were concerned knowing his past perverted behavior. One emailed him. He said the pictures had been removed.

One time when we were together I found a picture of myself on the computer. He had added a "bubble" by my mouth saying dirty words and what I wanted to do to him.

2 weeks ago he moved out of state. Last weekend I called his ex wife and talked to her. He never allowed us to have contact before this. She told me that when they were married their young son (6 years old at the time) found a Hustler magazine in the bathroom and asked her why her picture was in it. She went to the bathroom and found the magazine. This man had taken pictures of her, her sister and young nieces, cut out their faces and glued them into a Hustler magazine covering the original pictures and leaving the bodies! They divorced shortly after this incident.

I went the police department after hearing this as I am really concerned that he has pictures of me and where they will end up! The police said that basically I cannot do anything now as he has moved out of state.

Any advice? Can I have an attorney contact him requesting these pictures be removed? He took these pictures out of my home without my knowledge.

BWAAAHAHAHA That's pretty darn funny! And thanks to a recent US Supreme Court decision this is no longer considered child pornography!

Were these professional photographs? The photographer owns the rights to the pictures. Maybe he could get busted for copyright infringement....nah that'll never happen!
