I am not sure if you posted this information in response to my request
to cite a statute that would prove that libel is a crime.

These postings do not prove that libel is a crime. It is because libel
is not a crime. Libel is a tort, and unlike with crime, the government
cannot initiate a legal action against someone for libel. Only injured
(libeled) individuals and not the government can sue in a libel case.

I would appreciate if someone more knowledgeable about the law could
comment on this. I may be mistaken.

That is correct.  Libel is a tort and not a crime.

No, you are correct Igor.  Libel is written defamation, and defamation
is NEVER a crime in the USA.  It may be in other countries, but not
the good old USA.

And it is tough to prove.  Just where was this article posted at?

The assholes are not Criminal Lawyers, and I will give them a call
to check them out...

I left a mesage with them. and told the InterNet lawyer to call
be back.  This is just a Civil Law firm looking for business.
