Woman Files Chicago Personal Injury Lawsuit Against Ex-Boyfriend For Recording Sex Tape

ADVERTISEMENTS

A woman who says she never gave her ex-boyfriend permission to shoot video footage of the two of them having sex is suing him for Chicago personal injury. In her Cook County injury lawsuit, ?Jane Doe? is seeking at least $50,000 in damages.

She claims that she was emotionally devastated and very embarrassed to discover that a sex video existed. She is accusing her ex-boyfriend of violating Illinois?s eavesdropping law that requires that everyone included in a recording be notified.

Jane Doe says she and the defendant were last together in April 2008. However, it wasn?t until last year when another ex-girlfriend of the man let her know that the video existed. The woman sent the CD to Jane Doe, who says that she was so affected by the discovery that she is now frightened to become emotionally involved with another person in case she gets hurt again. Jane Doe says there was nothing in her ex-boyfriend?s South Loop Apartment to indicate that their activities were being recorded. The plaintiff?s Chicago injury lawyer says that he and his client believe that the sex footage has been shown to others.

Meantime, the defendant of Jane Doe?s Chicago, Illinois personal injury lawsuit has denied the allegations to The Sun-Times.
