A NEW Petition to help pass laws to Stop FOI Exploitation.



Fan Dlis!

The operation mugshot sites are likely protected by the First Amendment, since the information contained on the site is public records. Mugshot sites will often charge to unpublish material from their site, and they have the right to do so. While this practice upsets those affected, it is again legal since the sites can make decisions as to which mugshots to include, and which to unpublish. Unpublishing is a major issue in the  publishing world and it doesn't start or end with one site or another (Google "Unpublish" or "Unpublishing"). This is simply the cost of living in the Information Age, when public information is readily available.

Internet Website "Mugshots.com" is doing "extortion", "black-mailing", "internet scam" , "money extortion". Even after people have "Expungement and Sealing" done by the Judicial court and ordered by Judge, "Mugshots.com" is not removing the records and pictures of individuals from their websites, even after court ordered expungement and sealing mugshots.com is directing individuals to use one of their affiliate and pay $399 to remove the pictures and records of individuals from their websites. 
Mugshots.com intentionally has not kept any phone number, customer services contact detail, or the mailing address. Therefore its not possible to contact them. 
By doing this kind of internet activities mugshots.com is harassing individuals and victims, the records and pictures on their website expose the important details of the innocent and not-guilty individual on the internet, Individuals are affected because of this behavior of mugshots.com because these records are shown in the Google and Yahoo search results, this affect the Job prospects of individuals and harm their family and social life. 
Therefore its requested by many many individuals and victims of mugshots.com to take actions against mugshots.com on legal and moral basis. Mugshots.com operations should be shut down so that they can not run these scams and keep asking individuals the big sum of almost $400 to remove the records and pictures from mugshots.com and search results from google.com. Even after the Judge and court of law has ordered the expungement and sealing - mugshots.com should not keep displaying the pictures and records of individuals and keep asking almost $400 through their affiliates.All the interested individuals in this petition and all the victims should get togather and report Mugshots.com and other similar websites like mugshots.com who do the extortion through the mugshots. All the interested individulas and victims should Unite to report these scams to law enforcement autorities like FBI, State attoneys, Attoney general, Court of law. Also, this united force will help to eliminate this black mailing and extortion through the class action law suit and the Court of law. 

I DONT BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE SHOULD BE EXPOSED , WHEN PEOPLE HAVE DONE THEIR TIME IN JUSTICE SYSTEM , THIS MEANS THEY HAVE DONE WITH THERE PUNISHMENT OF THE LAW, WE DONT NEED A BUT BUNCH OF BULLIES ON THE ONLINE  MAKING PEOPLES LIVES MORE DIFFICULT. THIS MUGSHOTS.COM CAN GO TO HELL:) , WHO EVER THE OWNER OF THE WEBSITE IS , HE DOSEN'T  HAVE A REAL JOB . AND HES A USELESS BULLY.AND HES JUST WASTING A LOT OF TIME , HES A BLACKMAILER WHICH I MIGHT ADD HE ALSO BRAKING THE LAW HIMSELF , AND I HAVE REPORTED HIM ALREADY CONSUMER PROTECTION LAW WITH THE STATE OF WI , OF WHERE I LIVE. IF JESUS CHRIST HAS FORGIVEN ALREADY AND HAS FORGOTTEN ABOUT IT. BUT THIS GUY IS THE OWNER OF MUGSHOTS.COM IS AN A**HOLE:)

Mugshots.com is an LLC registered in the state of Deleware and has a registered agent to recieve service of process:
https://delecorp.delaware.gov/tin/controller
This is not exortion in a court of law but they are still liable under state civil laws like "use of personal likeness for commercial gain" or "economic damage  by use of personal likeness. The IRS would probably be interested also. They make thier money by "skiming" new information available under freedom of information laws and generating webtraffic to get money from google for advertising on thier site. They may also be persued for unautherized practice of law since the "venders" offer expungment service for like $3000. The relationship between venders and lawyer may be unautherized "feeder agreements" under bar ethics rules so you might even be able to go after the lawyers who do business with these people trying ever so hard to hide the money trail and identity of the man behind the curtain,
NOTE: The "approved venders" from the website can be sued as well (and should be)but also operate in anonymity be not disclosing any company information other than the name of the website. The transactions through paypal are somewhat anonynous at first but you should be able to subpoena the bank and routing information.
There is an attorney in SW Florida who claims represents the owner of the website in some capacity...hi Marc ; )~  : Marc Gary Epstein. Here is his profile from the florida bar website:
http://www.floridabar.org/names.nsf/0/C6C4B9EE28A58C6285256A830073C611?OpenDocument
The domain name is registered to a fake address with a dedicated number that is answered by a woman that claims to sell insurance. Follow up calls will show this is just a ruse.
Prior to reorganizing as Mugshots.com, LLC in Deleware, The website Mugshots.com appears to have been owned owned and operated by Moniker Privacy Services LLC, located 20 SW 27th Avenue, Ste 201, Pompano Beach, Florida 33069.  Phone number 954-984-8444.    Email:  [email protected] (This is according to other internet reports)
The manager of Moniker was listed as:  Domain Systems, Inc., which now appears to be desolved or inactive and they may also do business as SolutionsHome.com, Inc, and HitDomain.com, Inc. (Yes, moniker was sued for displaying underage porn...here are the court documents:

Hope this helps, go get em. And seriously, the operators of the site probably posted this question themselves. And FYI, they create bogus accounts to post misleading information on the internet. They found a clever way of making money but completely disregard hurting people and try to hide themselves from liability.Public information ceases to be protected when they harm other and use that information for comercial gain.

"STOP STAR NINE VENTURES", or should I say Tim Donnelly? Arrest records are public records, like this one.

Don't let this bozo lie to you.

"Related to defamation is public disclosure of private facts, which arises where one person reveals information that is not of public concern, and the release of which would offend a reasonable person. Unlike [with] libel, truth is not a defense for invasion of privacy."

These people try to come off as having the authority of law. This is not a business- it is a scam. Don't let them fool you in to believing it is anything more. They cower when lawsuits are mentioned and avoid the press.

I feel your pain but, arrest records are public records, whether you were found guilty or not (but you already knew that didn't you?). And no one owes to remove any public information once published, for fee or for free.
