How thick can you be in fairness.
Understandable (to protect the victim), but unfortunate that he won’t be named. People who interact with him in the future deserve to know who he is and what he’s capable of.
Scumbag. I would hope that there is some education going on about social media in school? Maybe instead of forcing kid into a religion module we could teach them useful things like how to budget and not send naked pictures to people.
Great to see this getting prosecuted. I cannot overstate my contempt for anyone who would do this.

See the excuses stacking up there already? He’ll walk away.
Makes me mad.
The court will use this case as an example of revenge porn legislation.
With intent to distribute images of revenge porn it’s up to 7 years imprisonment and an unlimited fine.
No intent to distribute and passed from one person to another. 1 year imprisoned and an undetermined fine.
With this eejit. Probably 18 months in prison, but will be 7 years probation.
