Run. As fast as you can.  Once you're in her life, you will never get out of it.

August 19, 2012  From:  Joel Edelman, Attorney at Law             Please be advised that I represent Lani Starr.  All further communications concerning the facts and issues set forth herein shall be directed to me, not to my client, Lani Starr.             Lani Starr, is being falsely accused, on-line, of being a "cyber-bully."  The truth is quite different.  Someone (against whom she has been in a dispute with from early 2010, and which later turned into a law suit which she eventually won a judgment against him in July of 2012 for nearly $20,000).  This person has a long history of felony criminal conduct and of having many money judgments against him.  Thus, there is reason to believe this person is likely the underlying source and perpetrator of the "bullying" that so many people are attributing to Ms. Starr.             During the time prior to 2010, this fellow and his intimate friends had full access to Ms. Starr's computers, email, and wi-fi via her wireless router.  Unfortunately, she did not have any passwords on her email, computer or wi-fi.  She was foolishly trusting (and quite nave) concerning the security and privacy of her computer system.             Just last week, she found out that anyone who was in her home (or even on any of the near by streets using a laptop) would be able to access her computer -.- as well as retrieve information and then send out emails, postings and other on-line notifications using her IP address, making it look as if it had come from Ms. Starr.  That is, to the rest of the world, it would appear that certain on-line posting had originated with Ms. Starr; whereas, in truth, any improper "cyber bullying" and other potentially illegal postings had originated with others.             The people about whom false and misleading on-line statements were made are certainly victims of such "cyber-bullying."  It so happens that Ms. Starr was also one of those victims.               In fact, none of the offending on-line postings (that APPEARED to originate from Ms. Starr) actually originated from her or were sent by her.             She takes responsibility for naively allowing a situation through which other people could (and obviously did) knowingly, intentionally, maliciously, and improperly "hack into" her computer system and spread venom about these victims as well as Ms. Starr.             Ms. Starr is very concerned and deeply sorry for all such victims (including herself).  She intends to do whatever she can to correct the record.  This letter is a continuation of her attempt to correct the record; an attempt that began on August 3, 2012.             Which gets back to the person that all indicators point to:             Shortly after his initial failure to pay Ms. Starr $15,000 in 2010, he posted a knowingly untruthful message about her on-line.             Sometime in 2011, Ms. Starr became aware that this man had posted something negative about her on-line.  Once she ultimately obtained the July 2012 Judgment against this person, she contacted the sites that he had posted grossly negative (as well as other false information) about her.                From August 3, 2012 to date, in order to rectify and clarify the situation, Ms. Starr has emailed and/or spoken with ripoffreport.com (2X) - - repeatedly asking them to take down the postings that she did not in fact post.  She also contacted The Alliance for Truth and Justice (2X) explaining to them that she was innocent and that her computer had been hacked.  Just yesterday she also contacted reviewstalk.com, to let them know that she in fact did not post any of the reports on Barry Cutler or others.              Immediately thereafter, a large number of these false and defamatory postings began to surface- - all "attributed" to Ms. Starr.             Finally, Ms. Starr has been able to "connect the dots."              It is highly likely that the person whom she has recently obtained a money judgment against, had cleverly "set a back-fire" starting in 2010.  That is, he knew that he had cheated Ms. Starr out of $15,000 (as well as had greatly injured her reputation in the industry); NOW he intended to "finish the job" - - by "cyber-bullying" her.             He knew that Ms. Starr had legitimately obtained a court judgment against him - - in fact, he had not even bothered to show up in court; nor had he bothered to continue having a lawyer represent him in that matter.  He undoubtedly knew that she would be able to get a money judgment against him.              It appears to Ms. Starr that this man and his "friends" likely had another plan - - to ruin Ms. Starr's reputation, her business AND to have several other people fighting-mad at her - - because of postings about them that appeared to originate with Ms. Starr.             What a clever and insidious plan this person had - - undoubtedly to further punish Ms. Starr for asserting her legitimate legal rights to recover monies owed to her.             Ms. Starr understands and has compassion for all those who have been subject to this "cyber-bullying."  It is truly unfortunate that people with less than honest and truthful intentions now have relatively new tools to carry out in their attempt to ruin the lives and reputations of others.             To summarize the situation - - Ms. Starr did NOT draft, post, email nor "cyber-bully" anyone; nor did she intend to do so.  Rather, she was "set up" to make her "appear" to be such a "cyber-bully."  Someone else's "fingerprints" are on the offending messages; not Ms. Starr's.             On the surface, it "seems like" Ms. Starr had posted those offensive messages.  However, someone(s) else perpetrated those heinous acts.  She played no part whatsoever in creating the content nor performing the acts that are being complained of.              Ms. Starr intends to "get to the bottom" of who is/are behind these acts.  She intends to fully cooperate with any and all entities who are objectively searching for "who" and "how" these many offensive posts were put into the cyber-world.             In the meantime, on Ms. Starr's behalf, I expect and demand that you immediately cease and desist from any further false statements, negative postings and actions that are based on the assumption or belief that Ms. Starr has caused the "cyber-bullying" being complained of.  On Ms. Starr's behalf, a demand is made to immediately "take down" any and all web content that continues to accuse Ms. Starr of such wrongdoing.  Any and all emails that you have sent out which accuse Ms. Starr of such wrongdoing need to be immediately rectified by you.  Furthermore, this letter needs to be posted as part of any of your remaining content concerning Ms. Starr.             One final note.  This letter has been hastily drafted and sent to all those individuals and organizations who have apparently been targeted; and/or are now targeting Ms. Starr.  It is being sent in good faith to you with the expectation that all those recipients of this letter will be able to take at least a "neutral" position concerning whether or not Ms. Starr had any intention to harm the recipients and/or she took any actions to harm those affected.              To those of you who have the moral and intellectual independence/neutrality to be willing to objectively determine what has truly been going on here, let me say the following to you - - Please communicate with me as soon as possible; especially, let me know what further information you may need to receive before forming any conclusions.  Further, if you have information that will help "get to the bottom" of this matter, please feel free to share such information with me.  Thank You.             To those of you who may reject (out of hand) what is set forth in the body of this letter - - let me say the following - - your very "knee jerk" rejection of Ms. Starr's innocence herein will be seen as a sign that you have somehow played a part in "setting up" and/or being "used" to "victimize" Ms. Starr as well as the other victims. Joel Edelman, Esq.Attorney for Lani Starr
