A Texarkana woman who allegedly shared an intimate video of a woman who used to date her boyfriend is facing a felony charge in Bowie County.

26-year-old Emily Basiliere, whose posts went viral on the Texarkana, Texas, Police Department’s Facebook page, allegedly went through her boyfriend’s phone without his consent and found a private video of he and his ex-girlfriend. 

The video was initially recorded with consent, however Basiliere allegedly used a social media app to share the video with the ex’s current boyfriend. 

Texarkana police received a report of this activity from the victim, the woman depicted in the video, and arrested Basiliere who is now held in Bowie County jail on a $20,000 bond.
