An 18-year-old Texas woman was arrested when she and her ex-boyfriend were allegedly shown her and her ex-boyfriend's sex tapes behind his truck to his friends and customers at the bar in a twisted revenge porn incident.
Taylor Jewell Richard has been accused of being protected by her indecent footage at the District 249 Bar & Grill in Tomball, Texas on March 3, with the aim of injuring ex-Boe.
Bassett, owner and CEO of Diesel Maintenance Company, recorded Valentine's Day romp after Richard's encouragement, owned that the “confidence” in the video was not shown to anyone outside the couple.
“She let me record it on her phone,” Bassett said. He told Ktrk. “I mean, I didn't think they were going out and took them out of confidence. I don't have the only fans or anything. I don't sell any pictures of my body or anything.”
Bassett claims he ended his relationship with Richard shortly after Valentine's Day and asks her to remove the footage from the phone.
One of Bassett's friends is located at a bar 28 miles northwest of Houston and warned Bassett of Richard's acts through Snapchat.
The message turned into jokes and names invocations that included bassets called “Mickle Pickles.”
Several of his clients were attacked by steamy video, which distracted their sponsorship from Bassett's business, causing self-employed people to anger.
“I can mess with my friends and interact with them. I can't handle them when I start losing money,” he said.
Richard was arrested Monday night and officially charged Wednesday.
She faces one count of intimate visual material felony, illegal disclosure, a crime she faces in prison for up to two years if convicted.
“(Richard) knew that visual materials were created under circumstances where (Bassett) had reasonable expectations that the visual materials would remain private, and that disclosure of the above visual materials had harmed (Bassett,), i.e., public rid lol and damage to business customer relationships,” the billing document read.
Richard was released on her perception, under the condition that he would not contact Bassett.
However, before being released from prison, she called him pleading for the charges to be dropped.
“She just said, 'Are you going to drop the fee?” And this, and others. I told the outlet, “No, you have lessons to learn.”
Bassett also warned other “young men” not to get into a similar situation by not recording themselves.
“Tomorrow is not promised to anyone. Your relationship is not promised to you tomorrow, and it can be evil that these women are here,” he added.
