From David Foley: Truth about David Foley:Truly innovative softwaredesigner!>> You posted an article about me and your headline is not correct and must be changed. I did not plead guilty to fraud. I pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit fraud. You also make other misstatements in your article. Here is a link to provide you with some more details about what I actually plead to and some background on the case.
Also, you incorrectly state that I "copyrighted" MAME, when in fact I filed a trademark on the word in an effort to stem the tide of the illegal use of it in commercial environments, and worked closely with the MAME team transfer that trademark. Core members of the MAME team confirmed my actions and the fact that I had asked them several times to take this to deal with it and when they didn't, I took the initiative to register the mark , transfer it to the team, and prevent unlicensed sales of MAME machines.
Finally, you very incorrectly state that I'm facing 50 years in prison. You may look up the plea agreement as it is public record, but the maximum I could be sentenced to is 41 months, and that is if the judge does not accept any of our arguments about lack of loss.
Please email me when you have corrected your article and posted notice of the update so that I can notify my lawyers that your inadvertent misstatements have been removed.
