Legal Aid: Jackie from Rolling Stone story hires lawyer
The Daily Progress ^ | December 10, 2014

Jackie has a lawyer.

Palma Pustilnik, an attorney at Charlottesville's Central Virginia Legal Aid Society, said Wednesday morning that she'd been retained as counsel by the woman at the center of a Rolling Stone account depicting a gang rape at a University of Virginia fraternity house.

The magazine revealed Friday that it found "discrepancies" in Jackie's account and said its "trust in her was misplaced." The fraternity tied to the allegation, Phi Kappa Psi, has said it found no evidence to support her claims and several key facts in the story were refuted by records.

Darn the luck. Just when Rolling Stone was counting all the cash they expected to roll in from all the free publicity.

Ah, well. Better luck next time, RS.

Jackie is now starting to pay for her lies. Lies can get expensive.

Worried about lawsuits, apparently.

Jackie’s friends have strong grounds for a lawsuit against Rolling Stone since the article depicted them as not wanting Jackie to report the rape so as to maintain good standing with the frats.

"Ah, well. Better luck next time, RS. "

"Jackie" may be the target of a RS suit. They threw her under the bus in their"apology".

With newspapers so eager to report “republican rapists” stories they should be lawyering up too

When is Zimmerman going to sue MSNBC for their “St. Trayvon” coverage?

Trying to get ahead of being sued by the fraternity for slander. “Jackie” has gone too far this time, her constant lies could break her family financially.

Forget “Jackie”. Use this as an opportunity to destroy that liberal rag “Rolling Stone” and it’s operatives.

Those fraternity men should sue Rolling Stone magazine, that “Jackie” liar, the University of Virginia in general and that fat liberal “president” of the university, for starters.

Were I a plaintiff successfully suing her for libel, slander and malicious negligence, besides a life crippling punitive monetary award I would insist on the sworn promise of her not writing anything publishable for the rest of her life. That’s what I’d do.

Is that a real lawyer? Or did she copy some lawyer photos from Facebook and catfish up a lawyer?

She needs a psychiatrist more than a lawyer. One that can be in the same room with her. Not another figment.

It is unlikely she will have any assets of her own as a college student, so she is probably judgment-proof unfortunately.

I like your tagline.

Often when I’m perplexed I’ll mutter under my breath,

“I don’t UNDERSTAND everything I KNOW.

I was under the impression Legal Aid only comes into play if you are on the receiving end of legal action.

She needs to pay for her false witness.

IMO, any proven false witness should be subject to the same penalty that the accused would have suffered if convicted of the accusation.
