Threats on myspace?????

A recent case in the news concerns a 13-year old girl who commited suicide after being "dumped" on myspace. (The "dumpee" was actually her neighbor's MOTHER, who pretended to be a 16-year old boy!) It would be my guess that this is why the mother is persuing legal means. While there are few laws currently on the books, states are working hard to change that. Do you want to be the case that sets precedent?

For starters, do not engage in online "warfare". You never, ever know who you are dealing with. From pedophiles to folks with mental health issues -- there are too many "unknowns".

As for court, I would recommend putting together as many copies of conversations, emails, or other communications between the two of you. A time and date stamp on these items would be especially helpful.

Allegations of vandalism will (and should!) be taken seriously by the court. However, just because she accuses you does not automatically result in a guilty verdict. She must prove it is more "likely" that it was you (if it is a civil, vs. criminal trial) than not. If you have any records of cell phone calls, ordering a pizza, or any other information that proves you could not be in two places at once --otherwise known as an alibi --then bring that to court, as well.

Good luck to you, and I hope it is a lesson learned.
