I sued a very bad/deranged person for libel who used my name to build a web
It's all about family!
Back in March of 2024 the owner of a local asphalt repair company came to my commercial property to fix the parking lot. He is a con man with zero experience in asphalt repair. He botched the whole parking lot and wanted to charge me $11,000. I denied paying him after he told me he would not fix his botched repair job. He flew off the handle and threatened my staff in the building. He then proceeded to purchase the domain name tomtengerdy.com and crafted a website that called me a thief, a fraud, and a bunch of other terms. I hired a slander specialist who said all of the untrue/false things he posted on the website was a strong case for libel. We sued this individual for libel. Until recently, whenever someone did a google search on my name horrible things came up. Freedom of Speech did not apply because none of it was factual. The defendant in my libel case eventually ran out of money, his wife left him because he went crazy, and his asphalt business closed. He then begged my attorney to stop the libel lawsuit in exchange for him giving me tomtengerdy.com, so I could wipe away the slander. I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else. I'm proud I didn't cave and pay him the $11,000 because it was a matter of principal. I was wronged and I wouldn't stand for it...even if it meant having my name trashed on the internet by an unhinged individual. Of course I can't mention his name. That's okay, I've closed that chapter. Hey asshole...when you read this here's what I have to tell you: you will always be broke, you will never have a successful business, you will never have a wife like the one you had, you will keep getting fatter and uglier, your dick will always be small, you will never afford a nice home or a nice car, and you'll probably end up pissing off the wrong guy someday and we'll read about your sorry ass in the obituary. You can change, but you won't ~ you are mentally ill. Asshole!
