More details to this question:
I hit this girl up on kik ( didn’t know her in real life) and turns out she was selling nudes, so as a young man with money I decided to pay for a video and 100 pictures of her (pictures were $10 for all of them and video was also $10) she got the money then emailed me the video and then after that she wanted to “see me” so I sent her some pics and now she is trying to threatening me to send her money or else she will send the pictures of me to my family on Facebook. 1 is what I did illegal and 2 isn’t what she is trying to do to me illegal as well?

This is a common scam on the Internet. There is no girl, there is no mother or father or detective -- only Internet fraudsters.
Do NOT send them any money. They are trying to blackmail you, and you are the victim here - not some young girl who does not exist.
Block them and do not communicate with them in the future.
I have never heard of these fraudsters actually posting the pictures because 1) It takes time and makes them no money, and 2) It makes it too easy for them to get caught.
