Problem:
Steve's girlfriend Tammy broke up with him to date his best friend Bert. To get back at Tammy, Steve took pictures of Tammy's face and pasted them on nude pictures of another woman and posted them on the Internet. He also posted that she had a sexually transmitted disease on his Facebook page, even though he knew this statement was false.
