Hey, idiot: Look up the word "blackmail" in the dictionary, next time!

From today's Centre Daily Times:

Student accused of assaulting girlfriend

A Penn State student from New Jersey who came to court Wednesday to face a simple assault charge was handcuffed and carted from court by police who said he had taken at least eight photos of himself assaulting his girlfriend to use as blackmail. 

_______________, 21, of Voorhees, N.J., told the woman "he took the photos and kept them in case she ever ratted him out on his pending marijuana charges," according to State College police.

The eight photos the woman stumbled upon, which police later recovered from the memory card of ___________'s camera, showed her asleep, naked, and being assaulted by _________, according to court papers.

When she found the photos, police said ________ threw her against a wall and continued to harass and threaten her and told her she'd be committing a federal offense by calling police.

___________ had been charged with simple assault and harassment for throwing the woman against a wall. But when he showed up in court Wednesday for a preliminary hearing, he was arrested on aggravated indecent assault and invasion of privacy charges.

He is also accused of selling marijuana.
