Legal Question in Criminal Law in Michigan

I am being harassed by a man I had an affair with. Out of the blue he tells me to pay him $1000 or he would tell my husband. Revealing online conversations, and pictures. I told him I didn't have it so he then changed the price to $300. After hours of messages asking him to just end it and leave me alone he continued with the harassment. I stateds that I would contact law enforcement if he did because that is considered extortion but he kept pressing the issue of money. He has attempted to contact my husband on fb many times but deleted them. So I just wanted it to end so I payed him the $300 and the terms where that he never contact me or my husband again. He agreed so I thought I was in the clear. But after 2 weeks he contacts me saying he is sorry but he needs $100, so I don't respond and the messages continue with threats and he even stated that I can call police cause he will send them if I don't respond. I don't respond and block him from contacting both me and my husband on Facebook.....So my question is is there anything I can do to stop him from harassing me and to not send any info to my husband.

All you can really do is report him to the police.

Call the police ASAP. That is a crime and he'll keep coming back.
