TDG Offers Up His Son As The Guilty Party

[shootstraight]

WARD also testified that he and his son, William, operate a legal E-Bay business from that address with an associated PayPal account. See Franks Decl. (Doc. 59-2) Ward Depo., pp. 20-22; p. 29, Lines 4-22. The E-Bay and PayPal account had an e-mail address of xxxxxxxxxx which was accessible to William.

A reasonable person might conclude that any of those persons had access to WARD’S computers and therefore his e-mail addresses and online personas.

A reasonable person could infer that of the people living with WARD, William certainly had access to WARD’S computers, his e-mail addresses and E-Bay account and thus, could have sent the offending piracy software in messages and posted on the Internet as well as selling DISH Network-related products using the E-Bay account and WARD’S monikers.


He also says its illegal to post files for distribution. That is not going to help anyone in court.

Docs attached.

It might be done to try and create "reasonable doubt", they can not, for sure, and without a doubt say who posted what if more than one person has access.
Problem is it wouldn't matter in this situation, all with access would then share in the guilt unless one person stands up and says "I am the one", letting the others off the hook.

I must confess! I had also had access to robert ward computer.I sent those e-mails! While i'm at it... I also was the second gunman on the grassy knoll. I even went as far as to plan AND execute the moon landing ( i wasn't even born yet!). I can't take the blame for jimmy hoffa. That was col. Mustard in the dining room with the candle stick :taz:

I agree it is completely to establish reasonable doubt. But you are incorrect to think all with access could be held accountable. They are in a court of law, not a 2nd grade classroom. Access is not the charge. It's just a precursor to opportunity. If reasonable doubt is successful on that count, it will be dropped. I dont see the tactic working at any rate.

Not to stir things up but from what I am to understand TDG and his stepson have a great relationship.

It is also believed by some who know him that his family and him have discussed this move and are suport.ing his decision.

If this choice to let a jury decide this case and prove reasonable doubt works the probability of bringing charges against his son or anyone in the house is remote at best.

I hope this pioneer who brought us free TV walks and the dirtbags using our tax dollars to investigate and prosecute on behalf of the Biggest Pirate himself.

You don't see the judicial system chasing around protecting Walmarts wharehouses do you?

Althought you may not agree with his lifestyle you all certainly enjoyed your free tv
