Tawana Brawley served with court order to pay man she accused of rape in 1987

Infamous hoaxster Tawana Brawley — whose outrageous rape lie 25 years ago inflamed racial tensions nationwide — yesterday was finally slapped with a court order to settle a hefty defamation case against her.

“For at least 25 years, she has been living a major lie,” said former Dutchess County prosecutor Steven Pagones, who was falsely accused of raping Brawley in 1987 and finally tracked her down, thanks to The Post.

“To me, this has always been about responsibility and accountability,’’ added the former ADA, who won the $190,000 defamation lawsuit against Brawley, 40, now a nurse in Virginia, more than a decade ago.

At 9 percent interest, that debt, which Brawley never attempted to pay off, now totals $431,492, according to the wage-garnishment papers filed in Virginia’s Surry County Court.

According to Pagones’ lawyer, Garry Bolnick, the single mom’s wages could be docked 10 to 25 percent per paycheck as retribution for her lies.

As far as I’m concerned she acted out of childish stupidity. Al Sharpton on the other hand, knew damn well what he was doing and should be the one to pay.

Going on the lam for 25 years was not an act of childish stupidity. Refusing to acknowledge her lies for 25 years was not an act of childish stupidity.

The unpaid judgement is now a garnishment carried down to Virginia and her wages will be garnished to pay $432,000 owed.

Maybe she did initially act out of childish stupidity. She is now 40 years old and has had a lot of time to answer for her childish stupidity.

If it weren’t for him, I suspect she would have confessed and ended it 25 years ago.

The danger of linking your bogus claims on one of the biggest Black KKK racists, Al Sharpton.

Sick is that our Florida Governor and AG fell for Sharpton BS in the George Zimmerman case. My tax dollars will reimburse Zimmerman for his damages
