I am a 19 yr old who sent nude pics to a 17 yr old and he is threatening to show the police unless i send him more. what do i do

For purposes of Texas's online solicitation of a minor statute (the statute that comes closest to applying), a minor is someone under 17 (or who represents himself to be under 17). In fact, a 17-year-old is old enough to legally consent to sex in Texas. So if he is really 17 you should have no problem. (Friendly non-legal advice: don't send anyone a picture that you wouldn't want plastered across the Internet for the rest of your life.)

You have a potentially serious criminal problem. I would not advise discussing the details or answering the questions that need to be asked on-line. Contact a criminal defense attorney for advice immediately. Sam Adamo ADAMO/ADAMO Criminal Law Specialist Texas Board of Specialization 713-237-8380 (Work) 713-203-4440 (Cell)

You need to hire a lawyer experienced with these type cases to give you specific advice based on all of the facts. You need to discuss what to do to protect yourself from the threatened extortion and what not to do that may create other criminal problems, like destroying evidence. The other advice you have received is spot on. Troy W.
