I understand she is threatening to attempt to sue posters for defamation and threatening to subpoena CoTH for IRL identities. Both of those activities seem to be legal ones. Has she threatened anything else?
I would not accuse you of defaming her for speaking out about her threat of legal action. As I recall, though, you posted that her saying that she left her gun in NC was âa fabricationâ, and that based on looking at a photo of her, you judged her to be a heroin addict. Was that the post that âmade the exhibitâ? I think that successfully breaking anonymity and successfully suing for defamation will be difficult, so I can see that youâre not worried about the threat of a defamation lawsuit, but I think that it is those posts that are potentially problematic, not your âspeaking outâ about her threat of legal action.
The issue of whether she did or did not bring a gun with her to NJ does seem to be a crucial point in at least one of the civil cases, and perhaps in the criminal case, according to the very useful material posted by @eggbutt.
But you assured everyone that youâre not worried about the threatened law suit, so whatâs the big deal?
Iâm not addressing you Yankee Dutchess. In my mind, after dragging me into your very dramatic flounce, you no longer exist to me. Be gone. Final warning.
I actually believe you that her Internet/FB behavior is hideous and nasty and includes fat shaming, threats of legal action, and bullying. That type of thing is not unusual on FB, and itâs a major reason Iâm not on FB. At all.
I have said all along that I am not defending LK per se, or icky behavior on social media, but reacting to what I perceive as victim blaming here on CoTH. It was MBs responsibility as an adult to stay within legal means to end his trainer/client relationship with her. No amount of nasty social media or IRL behavior, real or imagined, provides an excuse for his shooting her, IMO.
She didnât threaten to subpoena COTH. She falsely claimed that (i) she had already done so, and (ii) COTH had already turned over peopleâs PII. If you are going to reference what KM posted, you have an obligation to do so correctly - unless your purpose is to prevaricate.
Try less than a fortnight.
While I understand peopleâs issues with CE, there is a thread over there and it is blissfully free of this ridiculous behaviour so do consider joining that thread as well as/instead of this one.
Youâre a lawyer, correct? Please reread the one screenshot provided by @Knights_Mom from July 1. It is written in a very lawyerly way to strongly imply that CoTH was subpoenaed and that CoTH turned over names, but does not actually say that, if read strictly literally.
So, leaving the property when he told her to, right?
If your drycleaner, dog groomer, grocer, etc, say they no longer want your business and to move on, do you stay and threaten, harass all on the property, threaten, make false allegations, or do you actually move on?
Have you actually read the brief? Or did you read it and consider it âfake newsâ? Bless your heart.
Donât bother. You are out of your depth. Like Trumpers, I see you think that you two are playing 5-dimensional chess and are ever so clever.
Nothing about that message (or the sputtering CYA back pedal about the time of day) was written in a âvery lawyerly wayâ. It was, and this is just borne out by a plain reading, almost not even native English.
It was a regular, garden variety untruth that was then publicly exposed. That is all.
FWIW, itâs different if youâre a tenant. Which she was. Of course it does not even begin to excuse her behavior, nor the duration in which she continued to act like a jerk but⊠yeah. Itâs not as simple as just getting back in the car and leaving that very second.
Iâd have expected the friction to last about a month, but not to have escalated the way it was goaded to doâŠ
Was she though? Was there a signed lease or checks made out specifically for rent? I donât know what it takes to establish residency in NJ and therefore what it takes to get someone to leave too.
You can easily do that without the nastiness. I donât know how replying to her and telling her to âput the adorable mini airplane bottles downâ serves that purpose. I just donât see why you would do that if you honest to god think that person is mentally ill. I donât get it. Would you walk into a psychiatric hospital and feel good after making snarky comments to the patients?
If you read through those threads can you honestly say that every comment is just a bunch of Good Samaritans warning their fellow CotHers out of the kindness of their hearts? Come on. You can talk about the case and present the facts responsibly. That is not what happens in these threads.
