Dear Ms. Warbis:

As you are well aware, this firm represents the World Wide Association of Specialty Programs and Schools. We have followed the postings on your Fornits website for sometime. The commentaries on programs and schools that are members of our association have been false, misleading, and libelous. Now we find that your posters are also threatening witnesses, employees and others associated with the programs and the Association. We have informed BareMetal that your site violates their rules of conduct, and has been used by competitors in an unfair and unlawful manner.

We are aware you have been sued by Sue Scheff, and face litigation in Florida. We do not want to have to proceed in a similar manner in Utah, but if you do not immediately remove the slanderous materials about World Wide programs we may have no other choice. We want you to know that eight cases have been filed in Utah Federal Court over the past five years making allegation similar to your posters and every case has been dismissed in World Wide’s favor. Some of the programs have also had claims arise but none have resulted in a finding by a court or governmental agency substantiating abuse or neglect at any of the programs. World Wide member programs account for thousands of saved families, and it is a disservice to families with troubled teens to continue spreading the false, malicious and libelous information.

We realize you are already facing a claim for injunction and damages from Ms. Scheff, and we do not want our concerns to reach that point, but all the references to WWASP and its member schools must be removed from the site, and be excluded as a subject of future posts.

I have attached a letter I send to BareMetal making the same request. We look forward to you cooperation.

Fred R. Silvester
