So I was recently arrested because a picture surfaced of my ex online a few days after our divorce and she claims that I did it. In a statement I admitted that I sent an explicit photo of her to some one while I was under the influence but that it was a long time ago, the picture is also over two years but the da wants to hit me with a felony, aggrivated,assault charge. Thing is Im owed a good amount of money by her from our divorce so I would not risk putting this picture up, because I'm not going to miss out on the money she owes me but I'm not sure how to proceed considering I did admit to sending a picture to someone at one pt. Any help offered would be appreciated,having a felony on my record will destroy my future in the social work field. Thank you
