Legal risk: Deleted blog still shows in google search sesults
-
I created a blog and wrote some posts in it, then decided to deleted for legal reasons.
I also deleted the google account associated with that blog, so i cannot login and send any requests to google.The problem is that the blog still shows in the google search results as the posts had tags. When you click on the link it says that it no longer exists, but still, the stuff that appears is not good.
From what i read you cannot do anything to remove a blog from google search,, just wait 3-6 months for google to remove it on its own. Is this true?
Also, in this case, does anyone know what is the legal risk? Since i deleted the blog the second day after creating it, am i at risk if google still shows it in its search results?
Thank you.

You can ASK google to remove it, but there is no guarantee they will. It is out of your control.
As for legal risk, a lawyer can best advise you; you’d be a fool to rely on randos from the internet (speaking as a rando from the internet).

How do i ask google to remove it i already deleted the google account from which i created the blog?
-
Ask at Google – but generally they want you to prove ownership of the site you want the content deleted from, which means a live site. That is to prevent you from asking for them to remove content from my web site.

so basically if i cant prove ownership ( google account deleted) there is nothing i can do?

Go plead your case with Google – you are not the first person that deleted a site then needs content removed for various reasons – Legal, personal safety etc.
