I am in the middle of a court case, a camp fire I was sure I put out, a forest fire starting nearby. There is an initial national park service release stating it started somewhere else. Hopefully there's evidence to show if I did or didn't start it.
But here's my yahoo question;
In the initial newspaper articles, the county sheriff was quoted as saying I lived in that area for eight months as a homeless transient. That is so untrue, I lived/worked there 3 months, 2 days, and moved into staff housing as soon as I got there.
Newspaper and radio articles across the state (WA) have been telling the story, including that I was living homeless there. Now the stories made it to my home town in (MI)
I am really upset about this, I guess the news is the news, and that I'm going through a court case about the fire is news. But I'm feeling my character is being slandered by this untruth started by the sheriff.
Any suggestions on how to handle this?
