When 17 year old Jessie reacted poorly in the chatroom when Tommy told her he was 46 years old, he said he was just joking and was 18. The two spent almost a year chatting online, talking on the phone, and having virtual sex. In addition to Tommy, Jessie was also talking to a college student named Brian, which incensed Tommy. Eventually, Tommy decided that Brian had to be taken out of the picture.
