JERSEY CITY, NEW JERSEY: In New Jersey, a former Marine sued his ex-girlfriend for allegedly posting his X-rated pictures on Craiglist, sending them to his current girlfriend and family, and harassing him by calling him from 22 different phone numbers. The man's current girlfriend revealed how his ex called him thousands of times in a span of a few days. The former couple dated for almost 1.5 years before their breakup in 2015. 

The lawsuit is filed against Dezarae Collins who allegedly "embarked on a years-long course of harassment," as she was "unable to handle" their breakup, according to a Daily Mail report. The man who identified himself as SS lost 'multiple jobs' and had to change his phone number 100 times because of Collins.

'I couldn’t take it anymore'

The man has said that Collins sent his racy photos to his current 33-year-old girlfriend and his other family members. "I didn’t think this would be something I would have to drag around with me forever and something I would have to explain to every romantic partner I would ever have," the 29-year-old man said in an interview with New York Post.

He said that during his deployment in the Marine services, his phone would not catch signals, and as soon as it would, the phone would get "exploded with texts." “I couldn’t take it anymore. I wanted to break up with her. She kept pushing and pushing and trying to get back with me,” he added.

'I want it to cease and be done with'

SS' current girlfriend told New York Post that Collins reportedly contacted him over 5,500 times in a span of 10 days in October last year. Earlier this month, the man and his family won a restraining order against Collins and will be suing her for $150,000 per image. “I want it to cease and be done with,” SS said.

SS' lawyer Daniel Szalkiewicz told New York Post, “Our client has lost years of his life to Defendant’s harassment, always fearing when and how Defendant would strike next. His intimate images have been shared with his family, his fiancee’s family, and the world at large.” Szalkiewicz also claimed that Collins shared explicit photos of SS without his consent around 77 times since October 1, 2022.
