Where will that civil case be tried?
"Weaponized hate" as Black SC Cong Tim Scott brilliantly described it.
In the lying, grinning fool, Smollett, "expert" liberals saw a "warm, caring man" subjected to conservative racism,
and “divisive, hateful rhetoric” that put the no-talent dork "at risk.”
Yet, in the cool, serene Nick Sandmann, politely listening to a drunken drummer, these same "experts" saw a
screeching, bigoted lunatic and a "climate of hate" being played out.
The lawsuit was filed in Federal court — in the Eastern District of Kentucky. This might be the absolute worst place in the world for the Washington Post to be facing a lawsuit. They’d be better off with a jury comprised of Trump family members.
Filed in KY where Sandmann lives/goes to school. The KY laws on defamation are VERY much in Sandmann’s favor. He is NOT a public figure so all that has to be proved is ‘negligence’, not malice. Also, since he was a juvenile, he has 2.5 years to bring lawsuits, which his attorney (Lin Wood) has pointed out - says there could be hundreds of lawsuits before this is over. Most will settle before ever getting to court. Wood is not a “wreck chasing” lawyer - he’s a serious, skilled attorney who has made it his life’s work to protect those defamed when they are innocent - became well known when he represented Richard Jewel & since that travesty, he’s been on a mission and taking on the defamation of Nick Sandmann is his latest.
If it is Kentucky and I think it is, they might as well start writing the check.
The school is in Kentucky. I figure they’d file there.
Kentucky?
The lawsuit was I believe filed in Kentucky
