What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? SC
Hi, first post here so go easy on me here we go. So im outside my apartment complex walking my dog the other evening and another lady in the complex (ive never met) comes running up to me franticaly saying "Hey about 4am this morning I seen this guy (describimg my ex bf and his car) pouring a jug of liquid all over the back of your car, my bf chased him off, we didnt know if it was gas so we went to check it out and we think it was urine". She even gave me a written statement about it all, said it looked like he was trying to pour it thru my convertables plastic rear window which is half gone and ductaped up. So I went in and txted him with the exact conversation following...
Me: Hey, how are you?
Him: Good you?
Me: Wanna tell me where youre staying now or should I arrange a work visit?
Him: What did I do? Im still at the same place.
Me: I think you know... Better be glad it wasnt me that chased your *** off
Him: you just dont stop do you? Why dont you leave me alone like I did you when you asked? (In reality its him that wont leave me alone, much older guy)
Me: I think its the other way around according to the eye witnesses
Me: You could be a nice guy and offer to clean up my car for me, going to be about $300
Him: im tired of the games and threats, just leave me alone
Me: OK, I sure will.
Him: Im not gonna let you upset me
Now I have been avoiding contact with this guy and hadnt spoke to him period in 2 weeks till now, but anyways I then take a picture of the witness statement and send it to him and the convo continues...
Me: Sure you dont just wanna clean my car up for me buddy? Last chance. Fairplay was it? (The town he works in) you need help you nasty b******
Me: Well hoped I wouldnt ha e to do this but I guess I gott make a phone call, just in case you try to call me or anything.
Me: Youre crazy and when they get here ill be sure and ask for a restraining order in case you get any other crazy ideas.
Him: Its all about money, you just want more.
Me: I just want the nastiness cleaned off my car
Me: Idk tho, you might make the local paper for this crazy s***
Him: Blah blaah, quit harassing me, get lost.
Ok, so then I call the cops out and give them the statement, cop calls him (tried to get him to admit being there by saying they had a vid but he didnt crack) then he calls the witness (which wasnt home then so idk what was said on the phone) he looks at my car and of course there's no real damage, then he tells me hes going to file the report as "unfounded" since I didnt see it and the witness dosnt know him personally, basically said theres no damage get over it. So my question is, is there any chance I inadvertantly committed blackmail in that convo? Im scared he may try to press charges on me now out of spite when/if he finds out that report was "unfounded". I even a lil scared it could have been a set up all along and he knows this girl that ran up to me and told me hoping id do this. Im thinking it would come down to the wording I used, never claimed I was gonna call the cops on him if he didnt pay me specifically but is it close ebough I could be charged? Thanks for any help, and sorry for the long post.
