elizabeth Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 FTR it need not be false to be extortion/blackmail. The act of making a threat to expose something or someone with the contingency of a payoff is the crime. Just pointing that out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lara in Colo Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 It is about a COUSIN (Amy--25yrs old) with an older man. They say it is a picture of her in a "compromising" situation. She says it isn't an inappropriate and he is a long time family friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plansrme Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Another gossip site says they were offered the pics and that they were all quite innocent. Terri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the content of the pics isn't the issue. The issue is the blackmail, regardless of the content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denisemomof4 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 How does anyone know it's Amy? Her name wasn't even mentioned in the link. I'm with Joanne, though. Blackmailing is the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennsmile Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I never said I didn't like Amy. :) Just that if I was to pick a person on that show with blackmail worthy pictures the likely choice was Amy, not anybody whose name starts with J... Of course in the past year I came to realize looks can be deceiving and things aren't always as they seem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plansrme Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 How does anyone know it's Amy? Her name wasn't even mentioned in the link. I'm with Joanne, though. Blackmailing is the problem. Another gossip site has said it was Amy, and apparently Amy has responded, saying this is a long-time family friend who is helping her in her music career or something like that. Most blackmailing cases seem to involve something that is actually incriminating; there is no indication that that is the case here.

HayesW Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Totally joking. I like the Duggars, at least most of what they do. Of course they aren't perfect! I bet the fight and yell and sometimes, I bet the girls think about boys and the boys think about girls. I just think it is stupid that someone would blackmail TLC over something so silly. I like Amy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theYoungerMrsWarde Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 It is about a COUSIN (Amy--25yrs old) with an older man.They say it is a picture of her in a "compromising" situation. She says it isn't an inappropriate and he is a long time family friend. It being Amy makes it more probably than any of the main family. I don't like her because she seems like she's always doing things for the camera, trying to get attention. And though she says she respects the Duggars' beliefs, she says lots of things that are the opposite that seem intentionally to get more camera time. And that has nothing to do with her wearing pants or showing ankles. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of like, "Yeah. I FIGURED it would be AMY. Sheesh. <glare>" At least that's how I read it. astrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have their own TV show after all. astrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
