The best Divorce & Separation Family Law eBooks: Reddit reviews

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

This is a very strange story, so strange that someone wrote a whole book about it. There is a ton of information about it online (including the suicide note) if you google the guy's name (Chris Mackney). I couldn't paste it all here even if I wanted to.

>So reports Mike Masnick (TechDirt). Here’s what apparently happened:
>
>1. Chris Mackney was involved in various bitter battles against his ex-wife, Dina Mackney. He committed suicide and left an online suicide note posted to his Web site, blaming Dina. (I will mostly use the Mackneys’ first names here simply in order to avoid repetition and confusion.) Chris had also written various other things harshly criticizing her and others.
>
>2. Dina Mackney got appointed administrator of Chris Mackney’s estate, presumably because his heirs are their underage children, and she is the guardian of the children. (I’m not a probate law expert, so I can’t speak to the soundness of this decision by a Virginia judge, applying Virginia law, but I will assume for the rest of the post that this appointment was legally valid.)
>
>3. Dina Mackney then demanded that various sites take down Chris’s various writings, including his suicide note, on the grounds that she represents Chris’s estate, which owns the copyright in those writings.
