Someone named Alyssa was saying that you heard stories about us saying stuff that we like teenage girls or little girls and then she was asking which one of us was Robert but neither of us were named Robert and then she was asking for our last name well I think that the park lady from the Waverly Park or someone connected to that woman is spreading false stories about us The person named Alyssa was asking for our last names and told me stay away from teenage girls I will be watching you. Alyssa is someone who's usually under a bridge asking for money.
It sounds like you’re dealing with potential defamation or harassment. Here’s some general guidance:
- Defamation: If someone is spreading false claims about you, it may qualify as defamation. In New York, defamation requires proving that the statements are false, damaging to your reputation, and made negligently or maliciously.
- Harassment: If Alyssa’s behavior feels threatening or persistent, you might consider filing a harassment report with local law enforcement.
