classified as libel. The story was published and identified Mr. Martinez and
told a story that could be defaming or considered as damaging to his
reputation. However, the message lacks negligence and we can use that in
our defense. We did not act out of malice or published anything that is
false or inaccurate. All facts were received from public record or during the
personal interview with Mr. Martinez that Mr. Haskin conducted.
Due to the fact that we did not act out of malice or publish information that
was not public record I do not believe that Mr. Martinez has a just cause to
create a lawsuit.
Perhaps Mr. Haskin and myself could have taken precautionary actions to
avoid legal trouble with Mr. Martinez. We should have been clearer on
what the profile was regarding as well as our intentions to make an
example out of him in front of his peers and then asked for permission to
disclose facts that were given to Mr. Haskin in their interview. If we would
have had him sign a contract stating he understood what we were planning
on doing with his profile and story we could have avoided legal and ethical
negative outcomes.
Please let me know if you need any more information about this case or
the interview conducted with Mr. Martinez.
