    Bezos claims American Media Inc. threatened to publish intimate photos of him unless he stopped investigating how the tabloid obtained his private exchanges with his mistress.

    Two people familiar with the matter tell The Associated Press that prosecutors are looking at whether an email exchange Bezos published shows AMI violated an agreement it struck to avoid prosecution for alleged campaign finance violations. The people were not authorized to speak publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

    The agreement requires AMI commit no crimes for three years. AMI did not respond to requests for comment.

    There should be ZERO sympathy for Jeff Bezos. He made a voluntary decision to not only photograph his private parts, as well as take compromising photos of his girlfriend, but to post them on the Internet. Any idiot who takes such photos, and sends them online, deserves to face the consequences, no matter who they are.

    To: #5 - “Oink”- You don’t have to apologize to that piece of garbage, and cowardly slime ball, “Educated Archy”. He gets his kicks, by trashing everyone that he can on this site, with foul language. In reality, he is an uneducated, insecure, deviant, who doesn’t even know how to spell correctly!
