. I have, in my possession, evidence that this event did not happen the way this kid claimed it did. I can make him look like a pathological liar. I have witnesses ready to state that the octopus was, in fact, a female on eggs. I have his Facebook pages ... which, when shown to a jury, will leave a searing image of the sort of young man we're dealing with ... which they can weigh against both his and my version of events.

Bob, I don't really understand all this legal stuff, but is it your claim that you can not be held legally responsible for the cyber stalking or harm or whatever "bad stuff" that has hapened because the kid is a pathological liar..or a bad person? Is that really the defense? Do we first have to prove our own individual worth before our laws serve to protect us? Do we have to present our FB pages for review?
Are the young man's protections under the law diminshed by the content of his first conversation with you? (BTW I have no doubt that he intended to tell you to F off).
I am so lost as to how the sex of the invertebrate or if it had eggs is related to your potential liability in this situation. Who cares whose version of the initial encounter is correct? There was apparently no physical altercation and you two exchaged words and you (and/or your friend) collected some photographs. Neither of you two seemed to have violated any laws at that time and place. The liability issue would seem to arise from actions which took place after the initial encounter.
