I recently got called by the police and they asked me to come down to the station and speak with them. When I got there they showed me some chat transcript or something with two people talking dirty on it.

I read part of it and it was a guy talking to a 14 year old girl. The only chat rooms I go in are on irc and there's no 14 year old girls there.

My question is how worried do I have to be after being accused of this? Obviously I didn't confess to it or anything because it wasn't me. But with all the internet predator hysteria, are they going to come after me with just a chat log they said was mine?

Don't they need real evidence like confirmation that that was me ? I'm anxious about spending a lot of money on an attorney at this point because they haven't even charged me officially with a crime yet. Can I be prosecuted based off a chat transcript? If my computer was hacked or one of my friends was over messing around on my computer while I was gone, how can I prove this?

I was told by someone very seriously that if they had to choose someone who would most match up with my politics it would probably be Jefferson Davis. As a person from the north, this irritated me. Should I be offended by this comment?

A lady at work lied and told my manager that I called her some foul names. I did not and even have a witness that I did not. I told my manager this but she chose not to believe me or the witness. I missed a whole days work. This is in my file for 2 years and I am a registered nurse and it will follow me wherever I go to work. I really did not say it and the I just can't believe people can make stuff up and ruin a person's character for no good reason. I went to our H.R. department and tried to grieve it but they said it was past the 5 day mark in our policies. I just do not beieve she should be able to get away with it. Thanks Laurie

I mean, wow. Seriously. Couldn't they work on making it more fun? They make it seem like practicing law is not going to be the party I've always dreamed it would be.

Although I do give a shout in homage out to all ya'll who finished taking it this week! Whoo-hoo!

I am nearly 30, and have met a wonderful girl who is 18. We are both concerned with the legal ramifications. We think we're ok to date seriously, but would like to be sure. Help?

My mom works for a dry cleaning service. The owner is paying a more senior employee less than a newer girl because the newer girl "has no other jobs or forms of income." The more senior girl lives with her mom, so he refuses to pay her more because she doesn't pay rent. I'm in HR and I say that's not right. He's using his personal opinions and their personal lives to determine pay. They both hold the same job title and do the same duties. The girl being paid less has worked there longer. Don't you think that's CRAP??? He's also paying a 16 year old less than minimum wage and saying it's legal.

We moved from Canada to the US almost 3 years ago and now applying for Green Card, but our lawyer is so dumb he has been making mistakes and errors multiple times in the past few months on important documents, its to late to change lawyers also. Today was the final set of documents before we send it in and there were well more than 30 spelling mistakes, errors, grammar mistakes on all the important papers.

Now let say i cant get my green card because of my lawyers's dumb mistakes, am i able to sue him?

I thought my compensation teacher said it was 15 years or younger, but my mom said her boss is paying a 16 year old employee less than the minimum wage (in Illinois). Is that legal? I just graduated with my HR degree, but I can't recall for sure.

A close friend of mine recently found out he has a 12 year old son from a brief encounter back in high school. The woman never told him about the child and she is now married to someone else that the child calls "dad". For reasons unknown (although I can gue$$), after 12 years of zero contact (he has never left the neighborhood he grew up in and would've been extremely easy to find) she has suddenly decided to sue for 12 years back child support, reimbursement for medical expenses while she was pregnant, reimbursement for any medical bills the child has incurred in the last 12 years, and of course child support from here on out. A DNA test has proven paternity. My friend has no problem supporting his child and is extremely happy to have a son. However, he is angry and devastated that he was robbed of the first 12 years of his child's life. Can this woman be held accountable for what she has done?

I don't mean pride or mild patriotism(which is very healthy), I'm talking about the full-blown "America is the best, most free country ever" sort of talk you hear a lot of. It's something I've never seen in another country to such a great extent. All this, even in the face of the declining standard of living in the USA. Ironically this is the phenomenon that holds back the USA I think.
