In a triumph of stupidity over common sense, William “Billy” Carson has managed to distinguish himself by being the target of one of the first lawsuits by a state District Attorney’s office under CAN-SPAM.

Massachusetts is suing Carson for sending “thousands of messages with numerous violations, including misleading subject lines and failure to include a valid return e-mail address.”
