If you accuse somebody about something that is false is slander and libel. Diepeveen is being acussed of being the responsible of the List Case. If you cannot understand that this is slander or libel, I point out you the definitions: Slander: to say untrue things about someone in order to damage other people´s good opinion of them. Libel: an act of writing or printing untrue statements about someone so that other people are likely to have a bad opinion. When you establish or say untrue things about Vincent Diepeveen such as the List Case, you are creating a bad belief of this person. How can you call it? Accusing him about the List Case is slander.
