Great news in the fight against serial plagiarist David Boyer of Vincennes, Indiana!!
The Attorney General’s Office for the State of Indiana has written me that since they cannot mediate the matter with Boyer (as if we couldn’t see that one coming), that they now need “… evidence of a pattern of deceptive conduct in order to sue under the consumer protection statues we enforce.”
Fortunately, B Thoughtful compiled a massive pile of evidence proving conclusively Boyer’s pattern of plagiary against innocent authors!
So now we are contacting Boyer’s victims and packaging up the evidence for all the people we’ve found that he plagiarized and will be presenting it to the AG of Indiana.
This is a key breakthrough in information for busting serial plagiarists like David Boyer (under his plethora of aliases), Richard Ridyard (who we’re now actively after), Angela Priest and many more. Establishing the pattern for the state AG’s staff lets them go after them.
We’re setting up the legal defense fund- adding a Donate Button to the Fight Against Plagiarism, packaging up the evidence, and then going after David Boyer first and foremost! We’ll need lots of help, so I’m contacting the National Writers Union. Every writer should join the union as their first and foremost defense.
Finally a way to bust these plagiarists!
Excellent, man. Glad to hear it. The nastiness of certain humans is beyond belief.
Serial plagiary is a really weird thing, Charles. It’s hard to understand what’s in the heads of people who steal from other writers and then claim it as their own.
Great news! Their passports should be pulled immediately and put under watch in case of attempted flight to another country, like Canada. Anyone with bad dealings with this perp should pass it on to ‘B-Thoughtful.’
Amen, Martin and Elaine. And I still have the reward out for anyone who proves the real identity of David Boyer.
Angela Priest is getting higher on the list of plagiarists to expose, too.
Serial plagiarists – and not one, but many… Amazing! Like you say, it’s hard to understand their behaviour. They’re a special kind of thieves… But I’m glad there’s progress being made.
Thank you for your kind praise on my blog.
Much appreciated!
I love the look of White Cat Magazine – and its name! I’ll be back to read all the stories.
Praise well deserved, Vesper!
Hooray! Screw those bastards to the wall!
With a power drill, Lana.
cutting off their privates with rusty tin can lids is being too kind to all those mofos! GRRRRRRRRRRR
The Writers Union. Sounds like it’s worth looking into! AGB
