can i state in the message that its illegal what he did and it a felony
Yes, you can. However, it's important to be accurate. In Indiana, non-consensual dissemination of private sexual images is a Class A misdemeanor, not a felony.

Did you record him without his consent as well? In Indiana, it's illegal to record someone without their consent in a situation where they have a reasonable expectation of privacy.

Did he give you consent to record him?
no
In Indiana, it's generally illegal to record someone without their consent. You could potentially face legal consequences for this.
but hes the one who started this
Who started the argument doesn't matter in the eyes of the law. Both of you could potentially face legal consequences for recording each other without consent.
even if he was fully clothed
Yes, even if he was fully clothed. The law focuses on the act of recording without consent, not the state of dress.
he did say he doesnt care if i record him
Did he say that before or after you started recording him?
before
If he stated before you started recording that he didn't care if you recorded him, that could be considered as giving consent. Did he say this in a clear and unambiguous manner?
