A Texas couple has won a landmark lawsuit and been awarded more than $13 million in damages.

Mark and Rhonda Lesher, formerly of Clarksville, were accused of sexually assaulting a client. They were tried and acquitted of the charges in 2009. But then accusations of sexual perversions and molestations, drug dealing and other criminal behavior began appearing online. Over the next year, more than 25,000 libelous statements were posted.

The Leshers finally had enough, and sued.

""This was clearly a vendetta... We originally sued 178 John and Jane Does, and it all came down to two IP addresses."

Shannon and Gerald Coyel, and Charlie and Pat Doescher of Kennedale, who worked for the Coyels -- were ordered to pay $13.78 million to the Leshers after jurors saw more than 800 of the scurrilous accusations. The Lesher's attorney, Meagan Hassan, said:

"No one who has ever read the comments has argued that they were reasonable or rational. This is a good case to show just how bad things can get online."

The case shows that those who libel others online are not aware that they can be traced through their comments. Most service agreements that ISPs use - which few people actually read - prohibit the posting of any "libelous, slanderous or knowingly false" statement.

Peter Vogel, an attorney who specializes in internet law, said:

"This case proves that you just can't say bad things about someone without any consequences. I never put anything in an e-mail or posts that I would not want a jury to see."

Hey, then he could pay his gardener!

Yeah, somebody sneaks up to his internet connection and post 12 year looking adults on his behalf, right?

A defense to slander and libel is the truth. Does he want to deny the fact that he posts barely legal porn?

But Madpoet is a self admitted porn addict with fucked up tastes for immature women.

Moreover, he clearly stated he had to wait to ask for a fiancée visa because his future wife was not 21 yet.

So please. BE MY GUEST !

I believe what NaturlizedTexan is referring to is the constant accusations that he is a child molerster and pedophile.

I don't believe he has ever denied enjoying porn, so at least he is honest about that.

Of course, there are also accusations against NatTex, who has said he is an employee of a college, a person whose livelihood could be affected by such accusations.

I'm no lawyer, but because some of the same folk who relentlessly accuse Poet also posted his name, address, social security number, and wife's name, if he did chose to seek out a lawyer about it, someone's ass would be in a sling over it.
Pretty easy to prove the malice involved.

let's see.

Poup's a wifebeater felon.

Stated as fact by;

Sissytex
Pedo
Ghey
Rimagook

What's 14 times 4?

I would love to see this happen. Full disclosure works both ways. You know what I'm talking about.

I am not too sure on this.

Looks to me like disgruntled employees. If I am not mistaken, Slander/Libel, you have to be able to "show" damages to the individual slandered. The couple, apparently, ran a business that may have lost revenue due to the accusations.

For this to apply to MP he would have to show monetary damages to revenue gathering, or in some way shape or form, it prevented him from gaining employment or any other such activity. MP's fiscal past, if true, would not work out in his benefit, nor would counter accusations.

Not a good idea!

But, if MP wins all that money, "shon" won't have to beg for $2.99.

Looks like I am missing a lot here on FF. But I don't mind. Get some fucking life, people. Projecting FF personalities on real life is the sure sign you need to seek help.

Note, it only applies to personalities and words. Actions - like posting shit that looks like underage porn - are a quite different matter.

I guess this won't make the pedos any money either. Maybe they should contact profat. I hear he is a business genius.

Nice try boyscout molester, but Madfilthpedo is only interested in preteen porn and marrying ugly slopeheads with terrible acne who also have large laryngeal prominence and a penis.

Sue me bitch, but pray for someone first.

Sissy texan doesn't think Pedo's admission that he hides assets from bankruptcy court says anything about the man's character.

Oh, poop -

IF you ever work up the guts to try and sue me, be aware I can document 421 times you've accused me of a felony, starting June 16, 2007 and continuing through last week.

Yeah, you do whine & snivel a lot.

I thought the sorority girls don't exist? Your buddy FrogLiar said so!

Edit: Now, if you'll pardon me, I have to go back to work assisting those nonexistent sorority girls with one of their graduation projects.

I heard that Madpedo moved on to sodomizing baby goats of Asian origin that are dressed up in school uniforms. A friend of a friend of a friend reported seeing him popping viagra as if they were jelly beans and chasing (i.e. wobbly waltzing) the latest shipment through his garden with a turkey baster.

Sissytex, you might be interested to know that changing article titles in news sections is against the TOS.

Given the number of whiny emails you send, would it be too much to ask you to stop being a hypocrite in EVERYTHING you do?

Has he ever accused you, under your real name, and by doing so, caused damage to your reputation, business, or earnings?

No.

The conditions of libel have not been met.

Now, kindly stfu, retard.
