How about this for a press release / Montgomery county monitor in trouble for ruining a good mans name by posting his picture on the front page of your website as a wanted convicted felone when in fact he is charged ‘not convicted’ with a midemeanor and has no criminal history what so ever.
Haha, nothing will happen to this website. This “good guy” has felony warrants out for him. If he is such an angel why did he run? No one is buying what you’re selling.
