Unauthorized User Leaves FB Logged In... Message Reveal Incriminating Facts

[beardie13]

I am in TN currently, but the computer was used without authorization (and the FB set to auto-login) in GA.

I left town, and left my computer behind. Without my permission, my roommate got on my computer, moved/deleted files, and then left her Facebook set to auto-login. I got moved back to TN, booted up my computer, and hit the FB bookmark on my toolbar. I was logged into my ex-roommate's FB. I read the messages she exchanged with her boyfriend, my other roommate, and found some things. The boyfriend spoke of 'destroying my stuff,' and some of my things were broken when I came to move out. The boyfriend also spoke of people coming to pick up items that belonged to me... Conspiracy to Commit Theft, am I not correct? The girl talks about breaking open a vial that at one time contained Dilaudid (I had been given it in the ER, but had rinsed it out, so I could keep it as a collectible), and trying to get high from the moisture left inside. I know selling fake drugs is as illegal as selling real ones... would she be guilty of stealing a Controlled Substance... at the very least I know that it is destruction of property. I also trusted the guy to transport some of my prescription medication to my former boss/best friend as he was making sure I didn't take more than I was prescribed (it is a Sch. II Controlled Substance); and he admits to breaking the capsules open and pinching a little of the medication out of each. Can I take screen shots of these portions of the conversation, and use them as evidence in a case? Or would my admission that I had read the messages get me in legal trouble. Are there any other ways to get the conversation used as evidence without saying I read it (i.e.- having someone say they saw a portion over the guy's shoulder at work)?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Two things.

First, why on earth did you actually go into the private message section?

Second, THIS?

I also trusted the guy to transport some of my prescription medication to my former boss/best friend as he was making sure I didn't take more than I was prescribed (it is a Sch. II Controlled Substance)

You really think anyone is going to believe that?!

 

[beardie13]

...just asking...

It never hurts to ask...

And like Quincy said... there are reasons that make what seems to appear as me being petty as me not being that petty.

 

[Eekamouse]

One wonders what you did to them to make them act this way towards you. I sincerely doubt your hands are clean in this situation.

Paranoia..

They thought I was trying to get him fired (I convinced my ex-boss not to fire him several times), they thought I was going to kick them to the curb and replace them with someone else (hadn't crossed my mind), they were just... crazy. They got the cops called fighting one nite. Showed up with a cat without asking permission.. and I let it slide. I gave them a discount on the first months rent to help them get established. I talked the guy into taking the belt he had tied to the clothes rod off his neck when the girl couldn't convince him. I gave them free Kratom. The worst thing I did was accidentally eat one of their frozen veggie packs. And ask for rides to the bus stop (which I paid the guy's gas for the trip there and back; & got him out of work put still paid while doing it sometimes)... if you call that wrong of me? The guy was supposed to move down alone from VA... he showed up with her in tow & a dog. They just drank and fought all the time... I felt like a guest in my own house. And like I said, they were planning on selling/giving my stuff away and luckily I showed up with a U-Haul right before they went through with it I think. The guy ended up freaking out on two other co-workers and was convinced they were out to get him and then took off and moved back to VA. He posted a bunch of s#*7 talking on FB about the boss as he did. Basically, I'm nice to people and they always turn out to take this to mean they can screw me.

Well, quincy actually posted the links to your other threads to indicate why I "liked" OHRoadwarrior's advice that you get a new life and a new roommate. Because you have a LOT of issues to address, a personal review of all facts by an attorney in your area may help.

So you're a druggie who provided them with drugs? People get high off of Kratom and it's addictive. It may not be illegal in the US quite yet, but it will be. I suspect it's not the only drug you dabble in, is it? No wonder you are in the situation you find yourself in. Your room mates are no worse nor any better than you. You really ought not to cast aspersions on them when you're just as dirty as they.

...throwing stones from a glass house...

I gave them Kratom, and told them it was not for human consumption. What they did with it was their own business. I am a chronic pain patient. I don't sell/share my medication. I have friends/family monitor so that I don't overuse it. I haven't screwed anyone on hundreds of dollars worth of utilities. If I was selling my medication, I wouldn't be worried about a few hundred dollars in utilities. You are so much better than I am because you don't have medical conditions, right? And how am I casting any aspersions? I state that I read admissions of guilt by the couple to every thing I said they did. It's not defamation if it's true. But I'm just a druggie, right? I'm addicted to drugs and a horrible person. How about you not cast aspersions? I'd like to know your caloric intake and height&weight, spending habits, number of alcoholic drinks you consume, number of cigarettes you smoke, number of sexual partners, time you spend talking about people behind their backs, hours spent watching TV, hours spent online, hours spent on your cellphone, number of marriages/divorces, amount of debt you carry on your credit cards, and your religious beliefs... there are more addictions than just those to drugs and more crutches that people rely on than just drugs. Chances are, if we looked at your life, there is probably something making you just as 'dirty' as me. I don't defraud people or steal. Last time I checked, having chronic pain & medicating it... or hell, even being addicted to drugs, doesn't violate the golden rule. And even if I was selling my medication/using drugs... I'm smart enough not to talk about doing illegal things and then leaving the conversation accessible to someone I screwed over.

I came here for legal advice, not to have my moral compass questioned and my character attacked. I'm sure you're well known on these forums and have a posse that will back you up though. Why is it that you are not a lawyer, yet know so much about the law? Are you a paralegal who just can't afford law school because you spend too much on clothes? Or maybe you aren't smart enough to get into law school, but know just enough law and combine that with a condescending attitude to make people afraid to question you? Or maybe you did too many drugs and failed out of law school (alcohol is a drug too, don't delude yourself)? Or maybe you're just a housewife/divorcee with too much time on her hands and a general hatred for the world you want to spread to other people? Whatever it is, don't waste my time unless you have real legal advice. This isn't "Dear Abby" or "Dr. Phil."

Now that you've got the tantrum out of your system - did you have another question?

 

[Proserpina]

One other point.

I'm also a chronic pain patient. Why is it that your physician and/or treatment team cannot/do not monitor your meds?

I'll wait.

 

[Eekamouse]

What were they supposed to use the kratom for, if not for their own consumption? What a sorry, weak explanation for giving them drugs that is. I'm not trying to imply anyone is better or worse than you, least of all me. I am saying that you lay with dogs, you're going to get fleas. I'm sure for everything you claim they've done wrong to you, they'll no doubt have just as many complaints about the things you've done to them to counter that. You had to have known what kind of people they were before you allowed them to move in. None of this should come as a surprise to you now. Throw them out and be done with them. You're not going to get them arrested for some petty revenge by lying about how you came by the information proving it.

 

[beardie13]

...and the posse circles around...

Uh, yes... I do have a question. My original questions.

And sorry for the 'tantrum,' I guess when someone not in the inner-circle defends themselves that's what it is called... but the inner-circle can bully and talk down to outsiders with impunity. As a fellow CPP, I would think you would understand that being told you are as low as a thief because you take medication is highly insulting. My ex-roommates lied, took money from my ex-boss meant for utilities, and left me with $700+ in unpaid bills on top of the other things they did. And Kratom is not just for getting 'high.' The Kratom industry is trying to fight that image. In the regions it is native to, it is used to help people with pain issues and to help keep opium addicts clean. When accused of doing something to deserve the treatment I received, I merely stated I had given an herbal incense product away for free... along with several other gestures of kindness and good-will. Some people are just bad apples and look for people to screw over. Does everyone who gets robbed do something to deserve it? Does every girl who gets raped 'have it coming?' Maybe I'm a generally nice guy who has an inability to judge the character of other people well... and I get treated like a doormat because of it. Maybe I've grown tired of being walked all over/lied about by this couple and want to do something to knock them down a few notches, so they can know what it feels like to be looked down on by others (though, they would be lucky enough to be able to attribute this to actions they have taken).

My doctor does monitor my medication. I traveled between GA and TN frequently when I was working down in GA. Rather than risk transporting it or leaving it at the apartment (when I knew the female roommate would love to get her hands on it; & maybe the Kratom was not just a gesture of good-will but a deterrent to her constantly begging for pills... I left the Kratom out and said if the bag got smaller, I wouldn't complain), letting my boss take the extra I wouldn't need until my return made sense. My boss paid for my prescription as well (he was my friend before he was my boss, he paid my phone bill and Xbox Live subscription fee too), and so he wanted to make sure I wasn't misusing something he was footing the bill for. When I lived at my parents' house, they would do the same thing. Thanks to people like my roommates, people think medication is for getting high only and not for treating medical conditions. The male roommate was a former classmate of several of my co-workers; throwing the couple out would have resulted in drama and when I still worked with him, awkwardness. I did not think that they were the type of people to do what they eventually did... again, I can admit that as someone who tries to be as good of a person as I can, I tend to only see the good in others until the bad slaps me in the face.

So, have I defended myself well enough to prove that I am worthy of legal advice? Or are there more challenges I must complete first? Should I upload a year of clean drug screens I have?
