Haywired: Feuding Owners in Court Over 'Lewd' Website

An AP newswire article, via The Globe and Mail, reports that:

Two feuding businessmen are headed to court, after one man created lewd images of the other and posted them on the Internet, using his rival's business name in the website address.

Richard Boucher, owner of Boucher's Furniture Store in Milford [New Hampshire], acknowledges creating the site, which showed a photo of Nick D'Augustine's face superimposed on a pornographic image, and another manipulated to show a penis attached to D'Augustine's head.

Boucher said his actions may have been wrong, but he was trying to even the score with D'Augustine, owner of Oak Furniture Store in Amherst, whom he accuses of trying to ruin his business.
