Tawana Brawley served with court order to pay man she accused of rape in 1987
NY Post ^ | 1/31/13 | CHUCK BENNETT

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.

changing her name to some five syllable Muzzie name.

Great plan! If it long enough, proper spelling will not fit in many computer databases. Give the attorneys every chance to misspell the name on the summons!

Here's the potential (likely?) scenario I see with this whore and her filthy supporters....they get one or more ACLU-type...or NAACP-type...or Nation of I Slam-type lawyers to just bombard every court,every judge,they can find.They ask for hundreds of delays,they lodge all sorts of accusations (anti moslem,racist bias,anyone?)....

Are you getting the picture? Do you really think this filthy whore and her supporters are above this?

The story says she's a nurse in Virginia. The moslems here have been under wraps ever since 9/11 ~ so they're not likely to do anything such as you suggested.

Her employer is the one who is going to have the court orders laid on him though ~

As far as I’m concerned she acted out of childish stupidity

A good reason why you should never serve on a jury. Go read Outrage by McFadden et al and educate yourself.

Last I read, she is a LPN in a nursing home. She will be paying for her premeditated crime for a long time. On the other hand, one of the men she smeared committed suicide as a result and has been dead for a long time, so you decide what she needs to do to satisfy justice.

She actually has a job with a bona fide W-2 employer, and her wages will be garnished. Your uninformed cynicism is wasted on this case.

Sharpton paid his court ordered judgment. Of course he had help. But that means nothing legally.

Well, perhaps I am uninformed, but it seems this woman has given everyone the slip before. I am pretty sure that I read that she had changed her name and then moved out of New York, which made it difficult for the plaintiff to locate her during all those years.

Is it not possible that she could disappear again?

“Sharpton paid his court ordered judgment. Of course he had help. But that means nothing legally.”

No, you are absolutely right. But it is interesting that race baiters like Sharpton can always find someone to pick up their tab. Now we will see if Tawana is afforded the same “courtesy.”
