Legal Question in Criminal Law in Pennsylvania

Need help, I need a loop hole or a exception to a penal code. The penal-staute is

title 18pa 5702, wire tapping and recording. the only exception I seen so far is

title 18pa 5713 part 2 part b. The problem I have is I recorded someone not realizing

PA has a two party consent law. This recording was not done on a phone, it was done

outside. During the recording the other party did state this : I HAVE A RECORDER ON ME"

which I thought it implied they were recording me ! I recorded the conversation because

prior to the recording this person threatened me and was trying to blackmail me.

So the next conversation I recorded and on this recording the other party threatened my

life, threatened to lie to authorties and the court and was trying to blackme me. I have it

all on tape. And since then this person has ruined my career, and my life, I'm helpless

cause I can't let anyone hear this tape to prove my innocence!! I need a loop hole or

a real exception to this penal code, or even a PA court case where this kind of recording

would be allowed! I need to be able to bring this to the DA,or judge or police officials.

this person is getting away with breaking the law and lieing on the stand! please

can any lawer look or know how I can bring this proff forward, I do thank you.
