A completely inappropriate, semi-nude photo was sent to a rap website of a sleeping, 19-year-old, Aaron Reid, the son of singer turned minister Pebbles ("Sister Perri") and Island/Def Jam CEO, Antonio "L.A." Reid.
L.A. Reid, Aaron Reid and Perri Reid
The surreptitious photo showed Reid asleep in a hotel room with his genitals exposed. The photograph was secretly taken by a disgruntled woman, angry that he did not provide her with money or career advancement for their sexual encounter.
I have nothing against Perri, but I'm not a fan of L.A. Reid, due to his dealings at Def Jam regarding this case, still I think what was done to their son is disgusting and appalling.
People are not even sure if he was a minor at the time the photo was taken, yet they are posting it unedited on the internet. Things like that can send people over the edge. I wish people would think before they post nude and semi-nude photos and videos of people online, without permission.
Congress needs to make a law barring such depraved conduct. Offenders that post nude and semi-nude photos and videos of people online, without permission, should face years in prison.
It is not a victimless crime. It has damaged many people emotionally and mentally. Teens have committed suicide over such invasiveness and exploitative conduct transpiring against them. There is nothing cute or funny about it.
Why is the internet so sick at times. It is as though there is a competition to see who can be the most depraved, debased, shocking and controversial and there is nothing funny about any of it. They don't stop to think of the impact it has on people's lives.
To those this has happened to, it is not the end of the world. Don't let it destroy your life.
