Rachel Lynn Craig, 28, was busted Saturday after the victim told cops Craig stole a nude photo of her and posted it online without consent.



WAYNESBORO, Va. (AP) -- An Augusta County woman faces a misdemeanor charge under Virginia's new revenge pornography law.

Waynesboro police tell media outlets that 28-year-old Rachel Lynn Craig is accused of posting a nude photograph of another woman on Facebook.

The law went into effect July 1. It makes it illegal to distribute a sexually explicit image of others without their permission. The phenomenon is called "revenge porn."

Police Sgt. Brian Edwards says the 22-year-old victim told police that Craig took the photograph from a cell phone belonging to the woman's boyfriend and posted the image on Facebook. The woman said she had taken the photograph of herself and sent it to her boyfriend's cell phone.

A spurned Virginia woman is the first in the state to be charged under a new “revenge porn” law after she stole a nude photo of her former boyfriend’s new girlfriend and posted it online, police said.

Waynesboro woman Rachel Lynn Craig, 28, is charged with the “unlawful dissemination or sale of images of another” — distributing private pics owned by someone else — after the law went into effect July 1, WVIR-TV reported.

Cops say Craig, in a fit of rage, went on her ex’s cellphone, got the compromising image that the 22-year-old victim had sent him, then posted it online for all to see. She was arrested and released Saturday after the victim complained.

“That was one thing we really had to establish. What was the intent of Ms. Craig for posting this?” Waynesboro police Sgt. Brian Edwards told the news station. “She considered the victim a romantic rival for this one individual's affections and she said that she did it out of anger."

The misdemeanor charges carries up to one year in jail or a $2,500 fine, or both. Virginia is one of 13 states to implement revenge porn laws since 2013, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.

Craig frequently posts on Facebook, though any incriminating pictures have since been removed from the social media site.

“I wish u could fall outta love with someone as fast as u fell in love with them …” she wrote in September.

“Y is it the people u love the most make you feel like s--t,” she wrote in another.

are the guilty.

For example - the "OMGTHESPEEDERSTHRUMYNEIGHBORHOODMUSTDIE" assholes who push the local gendarmes to set up speed traps... which wind up catching those very same assholes.

Much laughter ensues.

So Megan has not prosecuted for this? Is it because she may have posted the pictures? Because otherwise it looks very similar- I don't understand why the police wouldn't pursue this if it was as cut and dry as it she describes.

It doesn't, because it's only a Class 1 misdemeanor. Unless the cops can get a quickie slam dunk bust, they're not going to spend thousands of dollars of investigator time putting together a case.

Rachel Lynn Craig was busted because it took the Waynesboro cops about 5 minutes to put together their case. She got 6 days in jail, 6 months of probation, and had to pay $241 in court costs, which is basically a slap on the wrist.

Brandon Alexander Oliver of Richmond, the first man charged under the law, got off even easier- the CA straight up nolle prossed his charge.

If the cops wanted to find whoever it was who posted Megan Toohey's nudies, they'd have to actually do some fucking work, which they're not going to do.

The law is fucking toothless and a waste of time.

my feeling is she knew of the photos and volunteered

i'm betting it was not a hidden camera

volunteers do not get criminal penalties awarded. scoff maybe.
