Legal Question in Technology Law in New Jersey

Help! I am being accused of posting an ad.

My ex fiance filed a citizen complaint and a temporary restraining order on me-He is seeking revenge because I had to testify as a state witness against him for slashing my car tires in an act of domestic violence / criminal case. I viewed him on a survalliance video in court slashing them outside of a restaurant I was at.Right after I testified.....He told police I posted a sex ad about him with his first name and phone number on Craigslist.This was on a male for male personals section. I now have the copies he submitted to police and it is obvious to me he cut and pasted it into a word program and made it look like an ad. There is no proof any ad was posted.Also Craigslist does not allow ads to be posted with phone numbers so I won't bother getting a supoena to trace IP address. I can't find any laws pertaining to lying about an ad being posted,making a fake ad to appear real, or saying that I posted something I really didn't do. Also the mere fact that it is a retaliation for my testimony. What rights do I have for being framed? and just to mention he has been signing me up for all kinds of mailing lists on line and I now get all types of phone calls as well for things I never signed up for saying thank you for your application

To Mr. Henninger's advice I add that you should contact the prosecutor in the criminal case in which you gave testimony. Retaliation against a witness is a criminal offence. So is fabrication of evidence. If the facts are as you have stated them, your ex may be looking at a substantial fine plus jail time.
