Chelsea: 我童年时期遭受了父母人口贩卖和性虐待，这给我带来了深重的创伤。与James交往期间，我发现他控制欲极强，并试图掌控我的生活和社交。更令人震惊的是，我发现他的手机里藏有大量女性的裸照，其中包括我朋友的妻子，以及一张疑似儿童性虐待材料的照片。这些发现让我感到极度震惊和恐惧，我最终向警方报案。然而，由于证据不足，James并未受到法律制裁。在此过程中，我寻求了心理治疗师Eric的帮助，却发现Eric本人也是一名性侵犯，他被捕并被判处12年监禁。这段经历让我身心俱疲，但我最终战胜了创伤，重建了自己的生活。
James: 我否认所有指控，并认为Chelsea的行为是蓄意报复和诽谤。我承认我曾保留了Chelsea的私密照片，但我认为这并非犯罪行为。至于手机中其他照片的来源和内容，我拒绝回应。
