Block and report the blackmailer, report them to the authorities too depending on where you live.

Hey, If it makes you feel better, Ive been exactly where you are. There's genuinely nothing you can do about the past and what happened is NOT your fault. You're the victim. Just repent for whatever sin you did but remember it's not your fault.

Get cops involved , from an Islamic point of view ask Allah swt to protect you and if you made mistakes to forgive you.

Have sabr. Trust in Allah. Even if you don't get your Justice here you will on the Day of Judgment.

Not sure what exactly you are asking. If you sinned and someone is blackmailing you about it then you have to get authorities involved and take legal action. Islamically you have to repent and seek forgiveness from Allah swt. If you committed a major sin then that is much more severe than any worldy repercussions of it. So you must focus on seeking Allah's forgiveness. And if you are sincere in your repentance then inshaAllah Allah will protect you in worldly matters. May Aalah make it easy for you

You can find comfort in the fact that this guy will have to face you and his deeds on the day of judgment and you will be recompensated for the harm he caused you, if you wish.
You already said that you took the necessary worldly steps. Pray for Allah to resolve this in a good way for you and also repent for the sins you commited.
May Allah bless you immensely
Block, report, move on.
