Default My unbelievable , true story

hello everyone, was wondering if any of you could give me some needed advise. Ok , let my start from the begining. 6 years back my cousin put a hidden camera in my bedroom. Now let me just say that the recording he made is explicit in a sexual manner. Not sure if its with my wife or me by myself. That being said , my cousin made a myspace / youtube account and put this recording all over the internet. Furthermore he went to my job and gave everyone an email with this recording. He also spent countless hours emailing the recording to radio stations and any other place for promotion.
Ok well here is the crazy part of the story . There is 2 radio stations that I know of now that is haveing the public call in and pick songs that has anything to do with the rcording. First question , even know the radio station isnt saying my name , is this illegal? And they do use references from the rcording and they revail hints to my identity.
here s the second part to my crazy true and haunting story. Im a truck driver . i work for a beverage company in new england . Since the rumors and everyone seeing the recording i have been going through harrasment everyday. From people clapping , to people saying things that have to do with the recording. I recently found out that there is a tie between one of the radio stations that is makeing fun of me and my job. (I am a very sane person and I know the difference between real in fake) well last saturday I went to work picked up my truck and started my deliveries. Well I was listening on the radio station and heard the jockey talking about the recording so i decided to call them. well after listening for an hour I realized that they had devoted a whole weekend to have myspace listeners call in and pick songs to my recording.( this is when I put everything together) well the next thing im gonna say is why im haveing trouble getting lawyers or getting any advice. I Heard myself on the radio 5 times. My work put recording devices in my truck. and i do have one of the devices that I found after searching my truck. its called 1wire / I button. So now I know my work has been recording me in my truck and they know I know about it so they are continueing to spy on me to see if im gonna sue them. no one believes me. But this whole story is true and Never in my wildest dreams could I ever imagine people being so aweful. What do i DO. NOW I did leave out some details that might be important. How do I stop this

You stated you were going to say why you cannot get an attorney to take the case, but you never said why.

What vested interest would your employer have in recording you talking in your truck?

And, why would people on You Tube OR on a local radio station have any interest whatsoever in any "bedroom" activity on your part unless you were some kind of celebrity---and even then, why? Really, this makes no sense---sorry.

He went TO your job to give people EMAIL? This doesn't make sense. Why would a recording device in your TRUCK tell your EMPLOYER if you were going to sue them? Who is in the truck with you? Your lawyer? Wait--you don't have one.

Also, you state you don't know if it is you on the tape or you and someone else---if you have seen the tape on You tube and have "heard" yourself on the radio. Why don't you know what is on the tape? Also, if the person who GAVE the tape to whomever is using it is also IN the tape, then they could be legally allowed to do this.

From a legal point of view, this is a simple case of suing the deep-pocketed radio stations for a lot of money--not to mention the cousin for any number of actionable things----but you said no attorney will take the case. Why not? When you go to speak with one, what proof do you take them and what is their reason for not taking the case?

This really doesn't make sense. For SIX years a radio station has been doing this? Motive. Why are hundreds of thousands of radio listeners interested in a truck drivers bedroom antics? And, I don't mean this unkindly, but are you under a doctors care for any reason? ( of course, a yes or no answer is sufficient--no one expects you to divulge the particulars of your health on the Internet).

One wire, one button? A walkie-talkie?
