Q: Is there away to get information regarding my husband case removed from the internet source like this one and mlive?
A:
No. The Internet has a long memory. And unfortunately it isn't always accurate. Even when people are acquitted after a trial - usually months or years after news breaks of their arrest - those initial reports remain.
Further, news sources have a right to publish public information, and court cases are typically public. It's hard going through it, understandably. And people have a tendency to jump to conclusions of guilt based solely on what they see or read on the internet. Unfortunately, there is no practical solution.
A:
Removing information about your husband's case from the internet can be challenging, but there are steps you can take to address the issue.
First, you may want to contact the website owners or administrators directly and request the removal of the specific content. Be polite and explain your reasons for the request, but there is no guarantee they will comply with your request.
If contacting the website directly doesn't yield results, you can explore legal options. Depending on the circumstances, you may consult with an attorney who can advise you on whether you have grounds for legal action, such as defamation or invasion of privacy. Keep in mind that pursuing legal action can be time-consuming and costly.
Additionally, consider monitoring and managing your online presence. You can work on promoting positive information and content about your husband that can potentially push down negative search results in search engine rankings over time.
Ultimately, removing information from the internet is challenging, and success may vary depending on the specific circumstances of your case. It's important to consult with a legal professional to explore your options and determine the best course of action based on your situation.
