    I hope Mike Tyson is the next person who goes in there and takes a photo of him...

    That is going to cost him a lot of money. I wouldn't be surprised if the bodyguard doesn't serve some time in the Pokey when it is all said and done too.

    I wonder if the picture showed him with a woman other than his wife? What a gosh darn shame Hedo didn't sign with us.

    Why? No law was broken. It was a private club. They can make their own rules. If you don't like their rules, get off their property.

    I'm not saying what Hedo and his paid goon did was right, but it wasn't illegal. So, it's not going to cost him any money or get his bodyguard arrested.

    You can't destroy somebody else's property without their permission. That includes data, which is the pictures on the phone.

    Don't you think he could have asked to delete the photos first? That would be my issue.

    It's not necessarily illegal, though. It might be a civil violation, but it's so minor there's no way to show damages.

    There's no way in hell anyone's going to jail for this.

    Your just not thinking clearly Ed O. There are clear laws about maliciously destroying data. Just because it is a phone, doesn't mean it isn't a computer. Just because he grabbed it physically, does not make him any different than a hacker who destroys data. Just because he took the phone for only a few moments without their permission, does not mean he didnt' steal it. That would be just like somebody stealing a wallet from somebody, and coming back later and giving it back, and then asking for them not to press charges. The time period has nothing to do with the act. All of those things are illegal. Destruction of sombody else's data is illegal.

    Maybe it's just me, but I don't see what he did wrong here? Sure it might have been a little bit rude, but I wouldn't my pic being taken in a night club either.

    What law are you citing? I ask sincerely. I don't know what "data destruction" criminal law is on the books.

    And why on earth would any city or government ever waste one moment of its time or one dollar of its budget on a few photos that were seconds old and of no value?

    I'm thinking 100% clearly. I don't know what world you're living in if you think someone's going to jail over this.

    You also can't take someone's picture on private property without their permission. The club was private property. If she would have taken his photo in a public setting, she would have a legitimate complaint. The club where the photo was taken has a no photos policy. By taking the photo she violated that policy. She has no case here - legal or civil.

    That would have been common courtesy, but there is no law that says you have to be courteous. Being a jerkwad it perfectly legal. Not nice, but legal.

    Well, the photographer stole his likeness without his permission on private property - clearly violating his right to privacy. She obtained the photos illegally. She has no right to complain that he "took them back".

    Seriously, there are privacy laws that prevent people from trespassing on your property and photographing you without your permission (or knowledge) through your blinds. Both parties in this dispute were clearly on private property. She had no right to photograph him in the first place.

    Even *if* they were taking a picture of him (which it didn't even sound like from what I read) regardless of whether that act was wrong... that doesn give you the right to confiscate someones private property. Remember the guy in Hillsboro who accosted the KATU cameraman?

    If someone jay walks you don't have the right to hit them. I am sure he wound up in court. Anyway... nothing will happen to anyone I am sure... but it sounds like Hedo is doodoo.

    Nobody is saying he didn't have a right to be upset about his photo being taken. The point is, he took someone else's personal property (their camera) and destroyed information in it. That's a crime.

    Two wrongs do not make a right. She may have broken a law by taking the picture, but he broke a law by taking her camera and destroying data in it.
