Okay so long and short of it. My husband was an idiot and cheated on me, in my house, in MY bed. FYI_ he and I are working things out with counsling. But this inconsiderate woman has posted pictures she took of the two of them together, her in my bed, anniversary gifts my husband gave to me, her in my car (which she had no permission to drive), I have VERY NICELY asked her to remove them. Do I have any legal recourse (don't wanna sue her, just want those pictures down) with my husband and I's involvement in the church and him working for a a family run family values company this is not only painful for me to see, but could potentially get him in trouble. Would this fall under privacy rights or defamation of character?

I don't know but if he did all that then he doesn't deserve to work for a company that holds strong family values because now not only is he a cheater but a liar too. I think it should be branded on his forhead.

I think you may have to sue her, honestly. Not long ago, my husband caught some random guy in a parking lot with a digital camera attempting to take a picture of me as I walked up some stairs. He confronted him and got to the bottom of it, but the next day, I asked my boss (an attorney) if it was legal to take pictures like that without someone's knowledge. It's not, so I can't imagine that these picture that this woman has posted online would be any different. It's not exactly the same situation, but close enough to be cousins, ya know? I would definitely contact an attorney, but I believe that it would fall under the privacy issue.

There is no expected right to privacy since your husband allowed her access to these places. There is no defamation of character since well, since your husband had an affair with her and now she has the pictures which apparently he allowed her to take. Unless you are prepared to go to court or persue some other legal actions you have to hope she will remove the pictures on her own. And if he is still working for a family values company, he should count himself lucky he still has the job. If he loses it he cant totally blame her, it does after all take two to tango.

The landlord has the right to inspect, or send someone to inspect the home with reasonable notice. Taking pictures is a reasonable part of an inspection. If a Realtor put is sign in your yard, the pictures were NOT for insurance purposes. The landlord is SELLING the property and the photos are for that purpose. You can always make an offer to buy. Note: Either you LIED about an attorney telling you it is an invasion of privacy, or your attorney is incompetent. I tend to believe the former, because if you had actually talked to an attorney, there would be no reason to ask US.

The pictures aren't of you---they're of your bed and your car. I don't understand why you're worried about people seeing them---how would anyone know that it's your bed and your car she's sitting in? The photos of her and your husband---as long as they aren't nude photos, I don't think there is anything that can be done about it legally. They're just pictures of your hubbby and some woman---not of them doing the deed, right? You could contact a lawyer and ask this question. I'm sorry you're going through this, but I really don't understand how you can be trying to work things out with your husband. He's a creep!

ok so who knows that's all your stuff right? Aren't all these things material? I would demand you to stop it right now and look at the whole situation...ok so you took him back so here's what you do next...By trying to get her to take things down and stuff, you are bringing that negativity back into your home...Just forget about the whole thing...
First, redecorate your home(buy a new comfort set, put different pictures/paintings up), change your interior of your car if you can( I suggest new seat covers or just something simple like a new air freshener or something new dangling on the rear view mirror), Just ignore her and the damage that she's done if you really want to move on with your relationship otherwise, she will not go away and your relationship will sink deeper. Do these things and everything will be ok...

Unfortunately there aren't a whole lot of enforceable laws involving the internet. But you shouldn't feel embarrassed. You did nothing wrong. If it continues to bother you get a lawyer to writer her a letter. Maybe you could have her charged for using your car without your permission since you have proof. Or at least hold that over her is she doesn't remove the pictures.

Yes they can, and you can't stop them. With all the places like my space face book and others, you will have a hard time finding all the places to post a picture. Even when you find them, they are pictures of her, not you, so you have no rights to them. Even pictures taken in you home, bed or car as long as she is in the picture, they are hers . Again they are pictures of her, so you have no say on the matter. Sorry your husband got hooked up with a nut case.

As this would be his problem I would make him fix it.
If he is working for a "family values" firm, I feel compelled to ask:
WHAT WAS HE DOING F'ing AROUND IN YOUR BED?
Darlin', I appreciate your effort to maintain your marriage, but I really think you are married to a hypocritical LYING S.O.B.
Is your life really long enough to put up with this type of individual.
I have a real problem with people who work in churches and
profess family values yet participate in the most deplorable life styles when they think no one is looking. Cameras are such a wonderful thing for exposing hypocrisy.

Instead of contacting her..You should contact an attorney..I am sure your attorney would be more than happy to very nicely explain to this woman in writing. The legal action. You and your husband will take against her.If she refuses to delete the pictures .She has posted of you and your husband without your knowledge or consent to do so..

she has the copyright to the pictures, even though they have your stuff in them, and unfortunately can do whatever she wants with them, but I'd ask an attorney, you may have some kind of legal recourse since it would potentially affect your husband's job. What a loser she is.
