Today, I found out that my best friend's dad used my internet connection to make threats online. I'm going to have to go to court for it. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my dad got a warning from our ISP for going well over their fair usage limit. I barely use our wifi, and I keep telling him he should password-protect our router to stop people leeching our Internet. He's blaming me anyway, and says I'm grounded until January. FML
Today, I caught my "best friend" on my laptop, copying my girlfriend's nudes onto his flash drive. FML
Today, my best friend’s parents told me they’re gonna take me to court and sue me for “all I got.” Turns out, he'd committed suicide after I got in a relationship with someone else. Apparently, he’s had feelings for me for a while and couldn’t handle that fact. FML
Today, I found out that the reason my best friend is not allowed over anymore is because he hits on my mom and writes her love letters. FML
Today, I finally found out who has been hacking my email account to send dirty messages to my teacher. My dad. FML
Today, I was having computer problems, so I let my friend have remote access to fix them. We were video-chatting on Skype at the time, and so he thought it'd be hilarious to load hardcore porn in my browser the moment he saw my mom enter the room from behind me. I'm now grounded. FML
Today, I found out that I have to appear in juvenile court because I refused to go visit my dad, even though it was court ordered. FML
Today, I found out that my best friend is being sacked. He's also about to rent a new apartment which he won't be able to afford when he loses his job. I can't warn him or I'll breach confidentiality and lose my job as well. FML
Today, my "friend" thought it'd be absolutely hilarious to use my phone to text my girlfriend, bragging that I'd found a new "slampiece" and that she's "fukcin dumpd". Now I'm single, her dad keeps making threatening calls to me, and nobody will even listen to my side of the story. FML
Today, I found out that my father, who is divorced from my mother, has set up a lawsuit against her and that I am required to go to court and testify against her as a witness. I've tried to keep neutral for six years, and I'll go to jail if I don't show up. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

“Hey, I’m here to hang out! I brought my dad, but don’t mind him. So, anyway, what’s yo—yes, dad, I’m asking—what’s your WiFi password?”

If they can trace the threats to your location, they can trace which device it was sent from. It won't be yours.

I work in IP. I had my entire home account suspended for a spambot. I asked which device and my own company I work for/get services from and was told "it came from my IP, they don't know which device, but I'm responsible for it because it was on my network." Turns out it was my roommate's media server.

You should tell the judge you’ll kick his ass if he doesn’t believe that it wasn’t you who made the threats. The justice system loves irony.

An IP address alone might not be enough to prove anything.

This is why you lock your WiFi down and do not let anyone you don't trust on the WiFi. If they made threats, downloaded torrents/movies, spammed the network, or other things against the TOS of your service, you are responsible for damages. Oh, and the legal action as well for the threats. The IP address leads to your house.

I trust my best friends parents, so I'm sure OP did also.

You're entitled to see all evidence against you. See if you can find out when the threats were posted. You might have an aliby if you were at work or something.
