SP's thread was trolling?

[EirikurNoromaour]

I'm obviously incredibly relieved. But massively disturbed. How did that happen? Is SP ok?

Was wondering why the Caroline Criolla Prado case went to court? Was it because it involved high profile women and actual threats as opposed to mere malicious game playing? As far as I am aware the two internet 'trolls' involved had no previous police involvement.

Generally I am not of the opinion that they should be pursued through the courts, mainly because the courts are a pretty ineffective tool against the kind of personality issues that can lie behind this type of behaviour.

i would imagine it was due to the death threats mig but obviously i dont have all the facts.

If there is more to his with SP then the police will act accordingly - im not privy to all the facts with this either....

Justine can I ask how it went with the Police?

Hi folks,

Just to let you know we spoke to the police yesterday, and they will be getting in touch with the appropriate team who deal with this sort of thing.

Good news!

Thanks for the update. :)

Great news!

Thank you.
Good news.

Thanks for the update.

Glad the police are willing to look into this

There are some cunts in the world, aren't there?

Hey everyone, just to update you - the police have come back to us and said that they've recorded this as an offence under the Telecommunications Act. The offence is:

Cause to be sent by public communication network a false message to cause annoyance / inconvenience / anxiety

They're now looking into the possibility of identifying the perpetrator - we'll let you know as and when we hear anything more.

Thanks

Excellent news. Thanks for letting us know.

Crikey that offence is broad.

Sounds like just recording the offence though rather than identifying someone.

Good. Hope this goes somewhere pour encourager les autres.

GOOD!
Thanks for the update. I hope whoever it was gets in a whole heap of humiliating shit over it. It was a horrible thing to do.

I do hope that they decide to follow it up and at least caution the perpetrator.

Good news.
Pleased that they're taking this sort of thing seriously. Hopefully it will be a warning to other trolls that MN act and report and that the www isn't so anonymous after all.

I hope they take it seriously enough to try and identify who it was.

^ ^

I think the Police ought to be rather interested in whether you know the person responsible.

Glad they are pursuing this.

Fab! Hopefully the troll scum responsible is suitably bricking it

Excellent news.

Presumably having decided to record this an offence means that the police will be able to obtain the name and account information from the nasty piece of work's ISP.
