[MD] Can the county hold me or my family responsible for my son’s past crime?

I’m 54 and have NEVER committed a crime. My youngest son, however, was charged with a sex crime against animals. I went to adopt a dog today and was told it shows “THE FAMILY has been charged with sexual abuse of dogs” and “no one related to this person may adopt from this shelter.” His offense was from 2017. He didn’t live with me then and doesn’t live with me now. My grandson was with me—this dog is for him. This is absolutely embarrassing. I didn’t know anything was happening until detectives came to my door in the middle of the night. How can I be seen as guilty for something I never did?

My sister and I were aggressively coerced into buying expensive skincare products. Can we pursue legal action?

I was aggressively forced into buying expensive skincare products and a device with my sister while we were shopping. We repeatedly said no, but they wouldn’t let us leave until we bought a $2,100 device and $800 worth of product. The product has harmful ingredients they didn’t disclose, and it’s making me break out. My sister’s skin is now extremely dry — which it never was before — and they claimed the products would fix dry skin. It has only made it worse. I looked into the company and found many others having similar experiences. I feel like the company needs to be stopped. Do I have any legal action against them?

Can I file to enforce a stipulation in my annulment?

There was a stipulation that stated “both parties keep the property in his/her possession.” She still had thousands of dollars of my property and is trying to say that “possession” means the items were physically in her house when the annulment was signed. After looking into it, I confirmed this is not how this is typically enforced. Possession means ownership, not where the items physically are.
