[Vision2020] From Doug Stambler to Kevin & Shannon Owen - First Step Internet

[Douglas Stambler]

>> To: Kevin & Shannon Owen, First Step Internet
>>
>> I am seeking damages against both of you and your company. Under Idaho statute, I have 2 years to file a defamation lawsuit against you. If you put the deleted, libelous posts about me up on your forum again, I will have 2 years to file a lawsuit against you. Currently, I cannot file a lawsuit against the people who made the comments about me that are false because those things were posted more than two years ago. But again, if you put up the recently deleted posts you are legally responsible for the next 2 years for defaming me and harming my reputation. I am giving you 21 days notice before I sue you. I want all deleted posts that Sam deleted to remain deleted for now and in the future. And I want all posts that are replies to the defamatory posts to be deleted as well since those archived posts contain the original, defamatory post.
>>
>> I know you both have an excellent reputation in Moscow. But you have no legal right to enable others to destroy my reputation and you have no legal right to repost the libelous forum posts your company deleted when I threatened to sue you and your company over the past couple of days. I have the internet evidence that your company deleted some defamatory posts about me. And if you post the deleted defamatory posts again, the 2 year clock starts fresh in Idaho and I will sue you personally for perpetuating the libelous comments about me on your forum. This is not 2005. There is legal precedent for internet hosting companies getting sued and having to pay damages to people who are libeled on their hosted sites. I have no other issue with the two of you or your company except that you allow people to defame each other on your hosted forum and do not allow the victims of internet bullying and libel to have those posts removed. You must remove all defamatory posts about me from your forum to avoid my lawsuit against you. The damages claimed will be in the millions if I have to take you to court. Below is Idaho law that is relevant to what I'm saying.
>>
>> Idaho is aPer SeState
>>
>> Idaho recognizes defamatory per se claims, meaning that certain types of statements are false and malicious on their face. Examples include: Assertions of a taboo disease.
>>
>> A Remedy to Defamation before a Cause of Action is Filed
>>
>> Should the plaintiff demand corrective action on the part of the defendant to retract or correct a defamatory statement, the defendant has 20 days from formal notice to remedy the matter. The correction or retraction must be made in a conspicuous manner.
>>
>> If the demand is not met by day 21, the plaintiff is eligible for exemplary damages, along with actual damages.
>>
>> Damages Awarded for Defamation in Idaho
>>
>> Among the damages for defamation in Idaho include:
>>
>> - Punitive Damages
>> - Compensatory Damages
>> - Emotional and Mental Distress
>>
>> Sincerely,
>> Doug Stambler
