"Sounds like there has been no arrest, no charges--
what of procedural due process? If this man turns out
to be innocent, does he then have the right to sue the
Fulton group for defamation of character and libel,
etc.?" --M. Hohmann
No, he was charged, and already has several felony
convictions on his record -- see Dave D[elvoye]'s more
detailed post. Also, if I recall from my law school
days, defamation requires a reputational injury. This
character has no reputation to injure; quite the
contrary. There may be some close cases with respect
to defamation, but this guy, and this case, isn't one
of them.
