Copyrights

I am posting this due to an incident involving as site/issue where I knew an individual who insisted if people "used his name", without his permission, and scared several into this idea that if they did, then they would be sued, and see their day in court with him. This is incorrect, legally it has no withstanding, and a courtroom would not waste their time with it. Names cannot be copyrighted, especially with the engagement he has had on the internet sites he has had and not a single trademark was included in either his posts or his emails. Names are protected with Trademarks however still must be associated to a brand of sorts, in which he had neither, having threatened people with this, doing the damage he has done across the states and into Canada, this would allow him the potential of facing lawsuits and/or be reason to open him up to investigations as well as have what work he does have copyrighted, revoked under copyright laws. Let me provide the facts on Copyrights on the federal levels, how to obtain them, who can have them, and what is considered to have the ability to be copyrighted in the first place. Names are not one of them. As long as you do not "steal" his works, or "claim" his "copyrighted" works as your own or attempt to sell it without his permission, which no one has done, he is harmless to anyone. Copyrights are necessary for resale, and redistribution purposes only.

All in which proves, his threats have been empty ones from day one. Michael J Sutton you are a fraud, on a federal level. Your name is not any more protected than anyone elses, as much as you have both publicly and privately slandered, abused, threatened, discriminated, hacked, cyber bullied, cyber stalked, and overall flipped an ongoing investigation, and manipulated people, don't even for one second believe I am afraid to tell the world that, and mention your name in the process. Your threats are no longer good here, nor welcome. I would personally have 5000+ emails and 15+ people that I can prove alone that you did that too, not to mention what they each have to prove it with themselves.  I could care less who you know, how many famous people you know, how many lawyer friends you have, how important they are, if they were aware of your acting like you have them to use at your disposal, including to use them for purposes within an ongoing investigation and unless you are using this case under hire, or a form of job, then you are in even more deep doo doo cause lemme tell ya, that is illegal as well. If you were not hired by LE here, and you were not hired by the victims father, and you are currently and have been in the past using your job to obtain information in this ongoing investigation, or used your "professional and legal contacts/friends" to obtain information then dude, you just totally wiped out. I can prove you have indeed done that as well. You also have been maintaining contact with a potential witness to the case and attempting to pump any information out of her that you could, that too is interferring in an ongoing investigation.Try me! Next time you make threats to people maybe you should be able to hold up to them. You have manipulated this case, hurt and threatened people in the process, hindered the investigation, turned many good people against eachother, kept people from coming forward as a result and people see you for what you are now.
