So I was not always a good person. I try to be better now that I'm older and I'm ashamed to say I used to be pretty trashy. This one guy I bullied in high school got back at me for being a mean girl and he did it by taking advantage of his tech skills and he got all these pictures and video from my computer (don't ask me how he hacked me I still don't know) anyway he sent the files he copied to a few people from our high school and held it over my head that he finally got his revenge.

I was a mess back then and by the time it was over I had just started rehab I didn't magically change over night I was sent back to rehab a few times and made many bad choices to but I eventually got my shit together. Fast forward a few years later and this guy a few days before my wedding shows up again before I thought maybe he wanted to reconcile or something granted I was a bitch to him but what he did wasn't exactly right either.

He didn't want closure no he wanted money and said if I didn't pay he'd send them to my future fiance (whose now my husband) and I will say this now at this point I was pregnant and I was not afraid of him making good on his threat I was actually furious and that's when he dug his own grave. To show he still had the pictures he downloaded/stole from me he showed me one of them (he had one on his phone) and here is what the so called genius didn't realize the pic he had was one I took when I was underage.

I also had a friend recording our talk (he didn't see her but she was filming everything whilst hiding) now I was a bitch to this guy I was cruel to him in high school and I'm sorry for that. That's why when I got out of rehab I never went after him because I felt focusing on and improving myself was more important. This guy though his only high light in his life was his revenge and after he got it nothing went right for him he had a promising career with computers but it fizzled out as soon as it started and I guess he saw I was doing well and could not take it so he tried black mailing me. I should also add during his attempt at blackmail he groped me and made unwanted advances he also said something like "Maybe I should just take from you everything else I'm owed." this was why I had a friend hide and record everything I didn't know what to expect and I was right to expect the worse.

Anyway my friend and I took the recording to the police they got a search warrant and he was charged with possessing child pornography, extortion, and all sorts other things.

I know I was a bitch to him and maybe him humiliating me before was justified but what he did years down the road was crossing the line. He's still in prison and will likely be a registered sex offender when he gets out and I know I should feel bad because I was a bitch to him and pretty much tortured him in high school but after he tried blackmailing me and groped me I just couldn't feel sorry for him any more.
