Legal Question in Sexual Harassment in Florida

I'm a 16 year old girl. A few months back (I was still 16 at the time) I was chatting with a 16 year old boy online and he seemed pretty nice. After a while, we started sending nude pictures back and forth over Snapchat for a couple of weeks then just fell out of communication with each other. This morning he contacted me again from a different account, sending me the pictures he screenshotted from when we sent each other pictures, which I didn't know he did. I looked online and it turns out there's a way to screenshot a live picture on Snapchat without the other person knowing. Anyways, today he informs me that he is much older than 16 (around 26) and tells me that if I don't send him more pictures, he will leak the ones he has. I don't know what to do, I've asked him repeatedly to delete it and he won't. I can't go to my parents about this, they'll never let me live this down. What should I do? Please help. If there's a way to legally force him to delete them all without them knowing that would be perfect. Thank you.

You may want to contact the Victim Services Sexual Assault Unit of your local police/sheriff office and, assuming the predator is actually in Florida, see what they can do/suggest.
