With the great power that social networks have acquired and with the implementation of new laws that protect the content that users share on them, more and more people dare to report a crime that was committed against them, whether recently or a few years ago.
Many wonder why people are suing until now for events that occurred a long time ago and the answer is that there are some who barely feel brave and ready to face the situation, like Michelle Vieth, who recently confessed that she will sue her ex-husband Héctor Soberón for having broadcast an intimate video 18 years ago.
During an interview for the morning show Todaythe 43-year-old actress said she was ready to take legal action against her ex, actor Héctor Soberón, who released a sexually charged video that was recorded at his home in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, in 2004, a time when which they were both married.
The television host assured that Soberón leaked the video as revenge after he believed that she was cheating on him with another man, an intimate recording with which he affirmed that his sexual human rights were violated, since he said that they are things that are done in privacy and do not have to come to light.
Being able to have a consequence for an infringement of my sexual human rights, for having that exposure, which in my case when the internet happened was not legislated. I no longer have the fear that I had when I was 15, 16 years old. The consequences at the time are determined by a judge and if I was the first to live revenge porn that is now known as digital violence, let it be the last.
In addition, Michelle assured that she was no longer afraid, because she is no longer that young woman terrified of the situation, because now she feels safe and only wants the person who leaked her video to receive her punishment. But that’s not all, since she also indicated that it is an episode that she has not forgotten, but she has learned to live with it.
For his part, Héctor Soberón did not remain silent before his ex’s statement and stated that he will not talk about the complaint that the actress made against him, since he assured that Michelle has no way of verifying that he was responsible for the possible leak.
In addition, he commented that after his divorce, he has preferred to remain silent and not talk about it, but that she has been talking about the supposed video and their relationship for almost 20 years. Sure of not having committed any crime and of being free of any act that he is accused of, the actor asked that they show evidence that blames him for having leaked that video.
