First off I own a business, so things this woman has said Can affect my business if she's said these things to the wrong people.
My neighbor Joanne (real name not used) has custody of her 'nephews'. She has told the kids mother Casey (real name not used... fake name) that I am the reason Casey* lost her kids. And that I called social services on Casey. And Casey Believed Joanne. So When I asked Casey if she needed any baby stuff (crib, table, etc) for the baby she is due to have in a few weeks, she screamed at me because she seriously believed that I was the reason she lost her kids (I didn't even know her when she lost her kids.. I did meet her 12 yrs ago, but I doubt she even remembers me from then)
I had gotten screamed at for no reason at all! Casey* was very angry with me for something I didn't do. I explained to her that I had nothing to do with that. And that Joanne* who has custody of the children is the one who called social services. A really easy task to prove in court. That I did not call social services on Casey*.
Is it slander when Joanne* tells Casey* that I'm the one who calls social services weekly? When in fact is it Joanne that calls every week? ( I don't even know who the case worker is!)
This entire thing could have actually put me in danger as Casey's* Fiance is a very angry person and is in Anger Management and parenting classes so they can get the children back. If he had really seriously thought it was my fault they lost the kids, who knows what he woulda done. She wants people to think that she's doing the right thing, and that I'm actually a bad person and telling lies to social services. When in fact it is Her (Joanne) that's doing the bad things. So she's basically blaming me for things she does. but making people believe it and 'HATE' me over it. Is that really slander?
What are your opinions?
