Don't get me wrong, I am one of the first people that will critize something. But it's like... we're all those messages fake? I know they've skewed the truth... but it just seems to paint a new image for Jim for me. I know he's human and all, I just wish he got a scan done and proved to the cost that he didn't have any of that. Because then the whole case is false! Why can't Jenny speak out about this?
As I said, the messages are just very private examples of completely non-contextual communications between two people having a difficult time. The only real proof of anything from them is how despicable Mark Burton is.
There's no new image of Jim. He isn't hateful or nasty - he's having a very private exchange with someone over an issue that we nothing about. I've certainly been there and I'm sure most people have.
Being forced into divulging very private details about his medical history will prove nothing. Burton is just hoping that Jim will be so keen to preseve that privacy that he'll pay him to shut up. As I said, there's no shame at all in having an STD (and Jim is under no obligation to share whether he has or hasn't with anyone) but there is an overwhelming amount of shame in being Mark Burton.

Oh, blimey, don't invoke her. That's the last thing we need.
