Mr. Jack McKinney, Superintendent of Heatly School accused me of creating a Facebook page, called Heatly School, without the authority to use the Heatly School name and has threatened legal action unless I delete the page.

On Wednesday, May 5, 2010, I received a letter from Mr. Jack McKinney, Superintendent of Heatly School, accusing me of developing a Facebook page named: Heatly School.

I immediately went online to check out this page on Facebook and found out it was a Facebook Community Page of which I was not a member of but one of my “status comments” was appearing on the Heatly School Facebook Community Page. Other comments from other Facebook members also appeared on the Heatly School Community Page but those Facebook members did not receive a letter from Mr. McKinney accusing them of creating / developing the page.

Knowing and able to prove that I did not create the page and after researching the page went to my neighbor, Mr. Norman Stebbins, President of the Heatly School Board of Education to inform him of what I found out. I informed Mr. Stebbins that I did not create the page and would prove to him who did. When confronted with this information Mr. Stebbins told me that I made a comment on the page so therefore I am the creator. I also tried to explain to Mr. Stebbins that the comments on the page are taken from Facebook members actual pages because they reference the name “Heatly School” in their status comments. Mr. Stebbins then asked me why was supporting Melissa Bouchey when I have no idea about the situation, no right to make supportive comments about the situation, can’t even vote on the school budget and can’t even sign the petition showing support since I was not a home owner. I was taken by surprise over the more concern about my comment supporting Ms. Melissa Bouchey than who was the actual creator of the page. It was then that I realized that I got singled out and falsely accused because of my support comment for Ms. Melissa Bouchey and this made me curious so I decided to attend my first Heatly School Board of Education Meeting which was a joke.

I then contacted Facebook and received two emails confirming that I was not the creator / developer of the Heatly School page and Facebook even explained about the page in one of their emails.

Apparently, Mr. McKinney, a Superintendent of a High School as well as the entire Board of Education Members of Heatly School many of whom are or were teachers at Heatly School had no idea how to access the Facebook Help page or to contact Facebook, conduct research on Facebook Community Pages or conduct an investigation before making accusations.

I have on several occasions written to the Legal Counsel/Attorney for Heatly School; Mr. McKinney, Superintendent of High School at the time; and the Heatly School Board of Education informing and supplying them all with the emails from Facebook, only to receive no response whatsoever.

I thought teachers and faculty were the ones that parents are to rely on to educate and show by example to students how to be respectful, honest and responsible as well as giving them the right direction in life? Not how to lie and be a fraud!

Sorry to hear that. Honestly, it must be extremely tough owning your own business and all the daily operations needed to keep afloat. If your shop does move, please feel free to send us your updated information such as address change so we may update our records.

Thank you and we wish you the best of luck!

Ooops...Sorry about that.  Been a long day at work.  I thought something looked different about it.  I went and fixed it though for you.  Let me know if that's better and if you need anything else....Enjoy

Welcome to the forums.  Glad you posted this event.  I heard of this but didn't know how large the outcome would be.  Hope the event goes good for those who support it.

I have placed a quick spot on the main page for this event to gain it more exposure and to expose it to search engines such as Google.  Good luck!
