Police Lt. Diana Lopez Demoted For Sexy Photos - Page 2

*Katie* · 02-23-2013, 10:02 AM

It doesn't matter if the evidence remains or not. Someone saw the pictures. Lots of someones potentially.

Again. If you are stupid enough to send / post / whatever compromising and naked pictures of yourself you open your self up for problems.

Think that person you looooove now and will never hurt you would never share those pictures? I say what you have is potential blackmail fodder.

Ever want to be successful in life and have an amazing job where you are well respected.....and have ever sent pictures of yourself to anyone...or posted them anywhere...or showed them to anyone? Better hope that no person who has anything to gain on you has those pictures. Better hope everyone who saw your nakedness doesn't have a reason to get back at you.

People are free to be as stupid as they want. Stupidity can ruin your life.

You're certainly exercising that right.

**Jester** · 02-23-2013, 05:02 PM

My one question from the first time I started reading this story was: What disciplinary action is being taken against the boyfriend? I mean, yeah, it's never a bright idea, in the internet age, to send sexy pictures of yourself to anyone. Who knows what could happen to them when the relationship sours. But his release of the pictures is the bigger issue here. He could have just kept them under his hat, or deleted them. But he didn't. He used them as a tool to make her look bad. Something needs to happen to him, as much her.

*BubblyShell22* · 02-23-2013, 05:08 PM

I agree that what he did was wrong, but I agree with Katie that she was stupid enough to do this and send it to someone who ultimately cost her her job. She could have been smart and not even posed for the pictures. What you need to understand is when it comes to posting things on the Internet, nothing is private. Once it's out there, it's out there and can't be taken back. So, in a way, they're both at fault.

Exactly, but she's the only one of the pair who has their stupidity put on display here. The boyfriend gets to remain anonymous while she's dragged through the mud. Both of their names should be made public. Both of them should get disciplinary action. Both of them showed poor judgement.

*BubblyShell22* · 02-24-2013, 08:33 AM

I agree, but I don't know if any disciplinary action can be taken against him. I know that if it was a child who was involved he could get in trouble for distributing child pornography, but since Diana's an adult and consented to take the pictures, I'm not sure what can be done.

*Hannah* · 02-24-2013, 02:48 PM

"Can we just take a minute to think about how, if I were to put up an identifiable nude picture of myself, on my own blog, taken in my own bathroom, it could come back around an ruin my life? let’s just think about how, no matter what I do with my life - become a teacher, a lawyer, a scientist, a professor - a photograph of my naked body could render largely null and void the value that others would be willing to give to me.
It would not matter if I were a virgin - it would not matter if I meant them for a lover’s eyes only - it would not matter whether or not I did it for money - my own naked body could actually ruin my life and my work.
Can we just think about that? That is powerful, and not in a good way."

The laws really need to adjust to the digital age. Cyberbullying is another issue where it seems authorities are almost powerless to stop some very abhorrent behavior. The ex boyfriend should in some way be held culpable, as he has exploited a moment of private intimacy to her detriment.

You gonna post that next time some dude gets busted for a dick pic?

Doom still mad at me because I think he's an idiot for loving children?

If they don't, I will.

I think Doom is just working on his Soulcalibur create-a-character. The same one he's been working on for years.

*Voltron* · 02-27-2013, 09:43 AM

As much as I'd love to agree with the liberal sentiments in this thread, I can't. There is always the potential for damage in sending these photos. It happens all the time, and usually to women. Lame as that is, it's what happens. You may as well complain about getting eaten by a shark while swimming in shark infested waters. It doesn't always happen, but it happens enough that no one's going to be surprised that your ass is lunch.

*CyberCubed* · 02-27-2013, 10:18 AM

I don't see why people are annoyed that others want to see almost nude pics of a female officer. You know what they say about women in uniform. She probably uses her handcuffs on her boyfriend in bed.

Wow. So you're annoying AND a complete creep.

We're talking about an adult woman here, not an underage girl. She knew the risks of sending her photos across the phone which can easily be uploaded to the Internet.

Just because it wasn't illegal, doesn't mean the office can't do some form of punishment. If I show up late too many times, I could get fired. It's not illegal, but it violates company policy. I'm sure flashing a picture of your naked girlfriend around violates some policy the department may have.

Also...Shut up Cybercubed.

As messed up as the situation is, are you seriously gonna act like this woman did absolutely nothing? It started somewhere.

Everyone in the story did something wrong.
