I been taking articles from a site and using them as scripts word by word. The site that the articles belong contacted me and told me to delete the videos and that if I don't they have screenshots/proofs and will send it to Youtube. I cooperated accordingly deleted the videos. My question is.. since I deleted all my videos can they still use those screenshots to copyright/takedown my channel?

They can't use them against you at YouTube to take down something that is no longer there.

They can, however, use them against you in court if they want to sue you for copyright breach,, but chances are that won't happen. Taking other peoples content can and does have consequences.

So they can still sue me even if I deleted the video?
