Malicious email / police involved
Discussion
Needless to say I bet the OPs son and the guy who pressed charges are now worlds worst enemies.
Sad how a strong friendship can turn upside down like that. IMO its more likely the OPs son was a dick to the guy over a long period of time so he used the opportunity to get the guy in trouble. I cant see another reason why a friend would throw another friend under the bus like that.
Hope OPs son learns to treat others with respect

100% not - they had ever fallen out, that's probably what makes it more hard to comprehend that they have lost a good friendship - best friends.Sad how a strong friendship can turn upside down like that.

From the original post "He phoned them today for an update and they said the receiver of the email (his friend) wants to press charges."He was not his best friend, or it was not reciprocated. Or there is still more to the story.
Your son may have thought he was best friends, but clearly not.

How many dads really know anything about their sons social circle anyway? I know my dad knew very little, only what i'd tell him and even then he barely asked. Girlfriends was about the most we would discuss but even then I didnt often. Maybe other father/son relationships are different but besides the point, they were definitely not as close as you are lead to believe OP
The lad is better off not having the OPs son as a friend. I don't think I'd be friends with someone who would think it was funny or likewise to send me images of my sister.
Weird to say the least. You can think that you know your son but sometimes they turn out different to what you think you taught them.

From what I have read I don't think there was any intent for it to be funny, but it does seem to be massively misjudged way of tackling the situation. The intent might have been good, but the outcome/perception was radically different.A conversation would have been better but then saying 'guess what your sister is doing' would elicit 'why did I need to know that'?
The method and means to me say it was malicious. Making the offence complete and hence the punishment.
The bloke is better off without the OPs son as a friend.

Although I still don’t understand why the brother went to the police.
What a waste of everybody’s time - when he should just have punched OP’s son in the face and have been done with it.

You can roll your eyes but sometimes that’s the best way to deal with things. The plus is that it’s all sorted in seconds and people can move on with their lives rather than having a drawn out legal process. Saves on money, time and does not result in a criminal record.Gassing Station | Speed, Plod & the Law | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
