What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Pennsylvania

Two weeks ago I broke up with my boyfriend of 1.5 years. Today he found his way into a spare email account I have (I use it to sign up for sites that might spam me) & emailed my boss naked pictures of me. He edited out the backgrounds, but I know it was him, I am wearing a pair of panties in one of the pictures that I bought just for him. I am asleep in all the pictures because I would never allow him, or anyone else to take naked pics of me.
My boss sent me home because I completely freaked out when she showed them to me. I don't know what is going to happen with my job, and I don't know what I can do about these pictures. It makes me sick because they're probably posted on the internet. I am clearly sleeping, you can see my face in a lot of the pictures. I don't know what to do, and I'm completely humiliated.

He also signed into my online tv satellite service & ordered 12 adult pay per view movies. He ordered them last Tuesday & Wednesday, and I didn't find out about it until Saturday when I signed in to pay the bill & the balance was HUGE.

I didn't trust him anymore, which is why we broke up, and now I don't know what to do. I don't even know if the pics are a crime. I had absolutely no knowledge that he took them. I was told by the satellite service that it's a police matter, but I was just going to consider it a small price to pay to be rid of him, but he's obviously going to war with me.
What should I do? Has he committed a crime?

I haven't called them. I was going to pay for the porn he ordered & just suck it up. I just wanted to be rid of him, and I decided that would be the quickest way to make it happen. I don't even know what to say to the police now. What do I do? Show them the email? I know it was him, but what proof do I have?

I am guessing that I will have to file a civil suit if I do want to get my money back for the porn. It's $120 plus tax. I am much more concerned that he has no qualms compromising my job & my privacy. I don't know what to do. It's embarrassing, which was obviously the plan.

Go to the police now! If possible ask to speak with a female detective. Don't let him get away with this. Change your satellite access. File harassment charges also. You should be more than embarrassed, you should be scared.

what the hell difference does it make what the gender of the detective might be?

the rest of your advice is seemingly appropriate.
