Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned was turned on its head in the state of Maryland last year. Former Cambridge Mayor Andrew Bradshaw was not happy about a break-up with his girlfriend and took revenge by creating accounts on Reddit and posting nude pictures of her.
Former Cambridge Mayor Andrew Bradshaw pleaded guilty to five counts of distributing revenge porn online after his relationship with the woman ended.
He was sentenced to a year and a day for each of the five counts, but under the deal, all of the incarceration time was suspended.
Bradshaw, 32, was also ordered to pay $5,000 in fines — $1,000 for each count — as well as $750 in restitution to the victim and to complete 100 hours of community service, according to the prosecutor’s office.
He made a deal to avoid jail time.
After his arrest on charges of posting online pornography, Bradshaw resigned his office.
“Anyone who abuses the trust and confidence of another to degrade and humiliate them, particularly through the use of a forum as powerful and pervasive as the Internet, must be held accountable,” State Prosecutor Charlton T. Howard, III said in a statement.
“Such actions are especially egregious when committed by an individual holding a public leadership role of power and authority,” said Howard.
Under Maryland law, it is illegal to distribute a private visual representation of another without their consent which exposes their intimate body parts or displays them engaged in sexual activity, with the intent to harm, harass, intimidate, threaten or coerce the person depicted.
Revenge would fall under a number of those categories. Break-ups can be bad, but there is no excuse for going out of one’s way to publicly humiliate an ex. That is just petty to an extreme that really is not acceptable.
