You be the judge

I have a VP that is threatening to bring cyber stalking charges against me. See this thread, post #5:

http://www.eccie.net/showthread.php?t=626146

Everything I have posted has been factual information that is (1) Backed up by correspondence from her and (2) I deem worthy of issuing an alert on for the good of our community.

Below is a copy/paste of Texas law defining cyber stalking. I personally feel her threat is without merit but would welcome any comments from other members.


Texas H.B. No. 2003
AN ACT
relating to the creation of the offense of online harassment.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
SECTION 1. Chapter 33, Penal Code, is amended by adding
Section 33.07 to read as follows:
Sec. 33.07. ONLINE HARASSMENT. (a) A person commits an
offense if the person uses the name or persona of another person to
create a web page on or to post one or more messages on a commercial
social networking site :
(1) without obtaining the other person’s consent; and
(2) with the intent to harm, defraud, intimidate, or
threaten any person.
(b) A person commits an offense if the person sends an
electronic mail, instant message, text message, or similar
communication that references a name, domain address, phone number,
or other item of identifying information belonging to any person:
(1) without obtaining the other person’s consent;
(2) with the intent to cause a recipient of the
communication to reasonably believe that the other person
authorized or transmitted the communication; and
(3) with the intent to harm or defraud any person.
(c) An offense under Subsection (a) is a felony of the third
degree. An offense under Subsection (b) is a Class A misdemeanor,
except that the offense is a felony of the third degree if the actor
commits the offense with the intent to solicit a response by
emergency personnel.
(d) If conduct that constitutes an offense under this
section also constitutes an offense under any other law, the actor
may be prosecuted under this section, the other law, or both.
(e) It is a defense to prosecution under this section that
the actor is any of the following entities or that the actor’s
conduct consisted solely of action taken as an employee of any of
the following entities:
(1) a commercial social networking site ;
(2) an Internet service provider;
(3) an interactive computer service, as defined by 47
U.S.C. Section 230;
(4) a telecommunications provider, as defined by
Section 51.002, Utilities Code; or
(5) a video service provider or cable service
provider, as defined by Section 66.002, Utilities Code.
(f) In this section:
(1) ” Commercial social networking site ” means any
business, organization, or other similar entity operating a website
that permits persons to become registered users for the purpose of
establishing personal relationships with other users through
direct or real-time communication with other users or the creation
of web pages or profiles available to the public or to other users.
The term does not include an electronic mail program or a message
board program.
(2) “Identifying information” has the meaning
assigned by Section 32.51.
SECTION 2. This Act takes effect September 1, 2009.

Since this seems to be a Texas matter, why is it on the LA board?
As Vic in MS said, that is TEXAS law you are quoting, it has no bearing in Louisiana OR Mississippi.

Gee geecee,

If you keep this behavior up your cherry will be reinstated before the next time you get laid. Let it go and modifying your behavior from a stalker to an ordinary douche bag.
Dude, I don't know how many different ways it can be said...time to move on, man!!!!

You are not successfully going to court, you are not going to get any of your $$ back, right or wrong.

You're not going to shame this gal, anymore than you have...and that's no given by any stretch of the imagination, lol

What you are going to do, is to continue to let this eat you up, make yourself look like a creepy foolish stakker...and the only thing that is going to happen is this shit is going to get darker and darker.

This is not piling on you....this is not judging you....it's just happens to be some common sense advice

Until then...put a lime in the coconut, and stir it all up...call me in the morning and say...Doctor!!!!
Seems as though he's more concerned about the provider than his significant other...
