After the couple split, Brown alleged that Fischer sent explicit images of her to other people, including her own mother. She also alleged that he threatened to send them out to more people in an attempt to control her actions.

“I just sent your nudes out to everyone,” Brown alleges that Fischer wrote to her. “I’m going to make sure any sex pics, bad pics are sent to your employer. Do you want to see what war is like? I’m about to show you,” he wrote, according to the lawsuit.

The lawsuit seeks both compensatory and punitive damages, as well as attorney fees. She is also seeking an injunction to keep Fischer from disseminating any additional images of her.

In a statement to the Daily Beast, attorneys for Fischer say that the lawsuit is frivolous and without merit.

“Mr. Fischer is disappointed this has become a legal matter despite his efforts to bring about a respectful resolution,” the statement continues. “He is ready to put the matter behind him and move forward.”
