I just found Criminal Libel in Colorado, Again in the News:
And from The Pueblo Chieftain a month ago:
Prosecutors this week invoked an arcane, seldom-used statute to charge a Pueblo County man for allegedly disseminating false information about someone.
Robert Ezekiel Tafoya, 51, was charged with one felony count of criminal libel, according to court records. Convictions for the offense are punishable by up to 18 months in prison for first-time offenders….
District Attorney Bill Thiebaut said Tafoya used modern technology, in this case computer programs, to alter pictures of his accuser.
“The investigation showed that the defendant pasted pictures of the face of one person onto the body of other persons and published or disseminated the pictures electronically to others,” Thiebaut said. “We believe it impeached the reputation (of his accuser) and those pictures were being used to ridicule her.” Thiebaut would not elaborate on the relationship between Tafoya and his accuser, or what the doctored photos depicted, except to say that they cast Tafoya’s accuser “in a compromising position.”
Doctor Hollander didn’t alter pictures, she altered what REALLY happened and blatantly committed perjury in her complaint and had my website shut down.
The DA said “we believe it impeached the reputation (of his accuser) and those pictures were being used to ridicule her.”
How about perjury to not just ridicule me and impeach my reputation, but shut down my main website and major source of income?
Talk about ACTUAL damages. And then the harassment, “Matthew Hilton’s libelous publications”, the pic of my ”shithole” property, etc.
There’s also a really WEIRD case with the ADL having to pay $10.5 mill to people who clearly were harassing their Jewish neighbors and said some horrible things about them.
I didn’t say anything horrible about Dr. Hollander, I didn’t try to run Dr. Hollander down in my car, all I ever said about her was totally true.
And there’s so much to update her, about the process server, the lack of any privacy policy at local stores, the process server confirming my address at the post-office without subpoena, another trip to Kingman to pick up superior court info about process servers. Already scanned the docs, too tired now to deal with that, been researching Colorado law and contacting lawyers. More on that tomorrow.
