248. it was not just 1000 nude photos published without permission.

Sun Apr 5, 2015, 01:29 AM

Apr 2015

This psycho extortionist attached the women's names, addresses and other personal information to their photos so that when family, friends, community leaders, or prospective employers or boyfriends googled one of their names, up popped their nude photo from his site.

Life-destroying events were mentioned at his trial, so we don't even have to conjecture about that. And those photos with names attached are out there in the ether, forever, so now you think about how many more life-destroying events could yet occur in the future among his 1000 or so victims.

He got off easy for 1000 separate instances of extortion. As someone upstream pointed out, that's only 1 week of incarceration for each woman he victimized.
