schestowitz-pi3 | Hi RMS, | Aug 10 11:40 |
schestowitz-pi3 | For your information, my wife and I opened several criminal cases in the UK against Matthew Garrett for he had engaged in very menacing, threatening and illegal behavior. He seems to have lost his home, he's a cocaine addict, and he has been trolling our IRC network for months using racist sockpuppets (he targeted you too, using those same sockpuppets). He also makes references to knives, blades, axes while doxing our home address. | Aug 10 11:40 |
