Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas

I recently turned on one of my computers in my office at home. Skype automatically logged into my sons ex-girlfriends account. There was a file transfer in progress from her husband of their chat. He was sending her the transcript of their conversations he had saved referencing her back to an earlier question and answer she had given to him. The transfer saved onto my computer as a word document. I opened it and began reading. In the conversation, it clearly shows her extorting him for money. She had a child with another man while he was a way in the military. In the chat, because they are still legally married, he sees it as his obligation to support her and her child, even though hes not the biological dad. As i read the chat, she is pretending to be a court appointed social worker. Stating that if he didnt pay this or that, that she was going to hold his wife in contempt of court orders. She actually says in the chat that the police showed up at her house and arrrested her for "failure to comply with the social workers order through skype conversation"..which was a lie, she was never arrested. All along it was actually his wife pretending to be this social worker...for near 2 months in order to extort money from him. The child needs this, the child needs that, etc. Thats the SHORT version of this. Question is...Can she be charged with a crime if i turn the chat into the local police department even though the chat file wasnt intended for me to see?
