ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich. — A Michigan man who says he learned of his wife's affair by reading her e-mail on their computer faces trial Feb. 7 on felony computer misuse charges.
Thirty-three-year-old Leon Walker used his wife's password to get into her Gmail account. Clara Walker filed for a divorce, which was granted this month. Leon Walker tells The Oakland Press of Pontiac he was trying to protect the couple's children from neglect and calls the case a "miscarriage of justice." Oakland County Assistant Prosecutor Sydney Turner says the charge is justified. Privacy law writer Frederick Lane tells the Detroit Free Press the law typically is used to prosecute identity theft and stealing trade secrets. He says he questions if a wife can expect privacy on a computer she shares with her husband. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/40820892/ns/technology_and_science-security LOL No way!

I'd have to wonder about anyone who does not think privacy should be expected, even when sharing a computer. |

There are people getting away with murder, yet we are wasting time on someone checking his wife's email. How did we get our priorites mixed up?

Ok..so I know everyone's entitled to their privacy and he had no business going into her email..The courts have real crimes they need to be looking after..This is just dumb,Rapists,murderers,child molesters,drug dealers are walking free while they are going after this stuff.

I find this absolutely ridiculous they are married share bills and she obviously gave him her password at some point........she got caught privacy laws should not interfere within the institution of marriage and if she wanted to protect her information from her husband she could have changed her password at any point....many people have bills emailed now and as married couple addressing anything together he should not be held accountable to this law.......absolutely ridiculous......if I were married to someone I would have nothing to hide and they could have access to anything of mine because it is theirs too..... |

More info on it that I saw on GMA today was that the divorce had already been active and was going through and agreed upon but that he hacked her account to see if he could blackmail her for more money or stuff before the divorce totally finalized. Or go back and sue her for more.
While I think she was a twit for having an affair through all this, I also think, once a divorce is in progress, he doesn't get the right to hack an email. I know from personal experience I will NEVER give my passcodes to whoever I marry. He can kiss my azz. I spent three years trying to get an email account back that he caused problems with. Unfortunately, the cops said I couldn't really do anything as it would be pointless. I hope she turns around and nails him for all he is worth and presses additional charges. |

sounds mostly like spite, but it will be up to the courts
if he has found out she really wanted a diamond ring and bought it for her,, she probably wouldnt bring suit,,,but there has to be something to offset the wrong of what she has done I guess I dont think a commonly used computer should have privacy expected though, but thats just me, and how dumb does one have to be to know their spouse could read their mails and not ERASE them? |
