Re: slander ?

First you can contact the myspace administrators, and tell them if they do not take down the site they will be named in your lawsuit. Then you can call the police and ask that your former employee be cited for criminal libel. Then you can sue this guy for whatever he's worth (and I'm guessing he's not worth much) because what he has done is libel per se, which means you don't even have to prove actual damage to win a money recovery.

Good luck
