I do wonder if there is anything that can be legally done to protect the childrens images from being sold and used commercially by FD or Pattis?
WHERE IS GAL MEEHAN AND JUDGE HELLER on the issue of protection of the children and their rights?
Did the children consent to the use of those pictures by FD and did the children or their guardian have to sign off on the use of their images by Dateline. Such approvals are fairly standard so if the children or their guardian didn't sign off then how were the images made available to the world?
I'm not sure why we haven't seen anything from Family Court on the issue of the press using images of the children and Dateline in particular. Not sure if anything can be done or if Family Court simply doesn't care but my understanding is that such things fall into the purview of GAL Meehan (if he is still a part of the case as both Plaintiff and Defense have made motions for his termination).
I'm baffled on this one....
MOO
GAL Meehan has made enough money off these children that he owes them, for sure.
Now that FD has put the pictures out there, I imagine stopping their use would be like trying to put a genie back in a bottle.
The pictures were probably sold to a company who now owns the copyrights and collects royalties every time they're used.
