(Online Dating Industry Journal) Recently True.com released a press release stating that they are suing a convicted sex offender from California after he was found using their online dating services. The press release states:
“Upon becoming a member of True, Dr. Wells claimed he was not a felon. True believes this false representation violated both federal and state law. Upon discovering Dr. Wells' felony history, True took immediate action to increase the safety of its membership base, reporting Dr. Wells to appropriate authorities and taking the unprecedented step of filing suit against Dr. Wells. True is seeking a permanent injunction preventing Dr. Wells from accessing the True.com website and contacting its members. In addition, True believes that Dr. Wells violated federal wire fraud laws when he falsely represented himself to True and its members as a non-felon. This charge could subject Dr. Wells to additional fines, penalties and jail time.”
This news by TRUE isn't without controversy as this editorial points out.
I would like to help Dr. Wells raise funds to defend himself against these charges. Most sex offenders are harmless after the grind of our legal system. Even President Clinton lied to congress about a sex issue. The guy's been through therapy, probation and registration as have I. I wasn't a felon as a member but I was a registering sex offender(misdemeanor).
