Jilted Lover E-Mails Nude Photos, Faces Jail Time
Stephen Hailes, 48, met Karen Parker, 36, in a chat room this summer and the two began an Internet love affair. During their online tryst, Parker, a married mother of two, sent Hailes a collection of nude images. At some point he broke into her E-mail account and discovered she was flirting with other men, sending them the same photos and even meeting off line (Who would have guessed?), which they had yet to do. Apparently Hailes could deal with being the other man, but couldn't handle the prospect of other other-men.
Parker learned of Hailes' actions when friends began contacting her to ask why she had sent them naked photos. In his defense, Hailes claims he only meant to send the images to Parker's husband so he would "realise what sort of woman his wife was." Hailes says he must have clicked the wrong button, though we're unaware of a button in our E-mail clients that automatically sends to our entire address book.
So let this be a lesson: Don't start forwarding naked images of your ex-girlfriend to people if you don't like prison time. And even more importantly, don't send people you don't know nude photos of yourself.
