Will that really hold up in court?

christine_marie

Ex says he has a lot of evidence as to why DS is not safe with me. He is going to try to get full custody. I really don't believe he has that much info but I'm still slightly worried. He claims he has a lot of screen shots of my facebook. Will something like that really count for anything in court? And now I'm afraid he is reading my posts on TB. I'm thinking of making a new profile. Someone tell me I'm being stupid. I know I do nothing wrong with DS, but X says he is afraid for DS's safety when he is with me.

(Yes, I have deleated him off my facebook and it is all private)

hmmm....I'm just lurking but I guess I would ask specifically what does your x think he has on you?  Honestly, Facebook gets A LOT of people in trouble these days, it's the number one relationship destroyer and on a note so personal note it can be a make or break for a job offer.  I'm not sure how any of it could hold up in court, however I would imagine if you had some incriminating pictures they would be very relevant in a court room. I would probably also think posts could be the same unless you can prove you didn't make the post? do you have a lawyer, I would consult with him/her and find out more, I'm sure that Facebook accusations are becoming increasingly more common these days .

I'm curious to know what it is he has on you. You said you're kind of worried.. so you admit you've done something wrong? I'm really not trying to flame here I'm just sayin' you shouldn't be nervous if you've done nothing wrong.

Yes, FB can be used in court.

Just to put this out there but please understand that there is no need to put your entire existance on Facebook. 

Yes it can be used in court and just because you "defriended" him that doesn't mean he won't be able to get information.

I asked him for examples and would only give one. I posted a status a few weeks ago about DS pushing over the gate and climbing up the stairs while I was in the bathroom. I kept asking him for other stuff and he said that he has more but wouldn't tell me what else. I'm only worried because he seems so convinced that he is going to take DS from me. I know he's full of crap, but I just can't help but be worried.

I understand worrying about the thought of having your LO taken away but those things don't seem like something that they would take LO from you for.

But like PP said, don't put absolutely everything on FB because even though you aren't friends he can probably still find a way to get that info.

Yeah...I posted on my FB back in February about how DD's elbow got dislocated and my parents were like DELETE THAT! I didn't think it was a big deal because I had nurse-maid's as a kid and it's a very common thing, but they thought if EX found out about it he would accuse me of abusing DD.

I have a friend who has SEVERAL emails his wife sent stating that she doesn't want their kids, and is only trying to get them for money.  They have been admitted as evidence in their court case, but things are still going in her favor.  Go figure.
