The point was, the “superlawyer” power couple threatened to ruin the lady just by suing her to death, pointing out that they could do this for free on their own time.
A$$holes like that deserve to be (redacted).
That wasn't their only threat. From page 3 of the article:
This week Jonathan Selbin wrote ABC News and asked, "Have you asked Ms. Huff how she would react if we put dog poison in the shared hallway?" So we asked her.Here is one of the demands he listed in the statement he gave John Stossel:"How can you say something like this?" Huff said.
On Thursday night she agreed to his demands.
We told Ms. Huff that we would quickly dismiss our lawsuit if she would simply agree to use these air purifiers and to put a fan in her window blowing out.I don't believe they offered to pay the ridiculous cost of heating and cooling her apartment while blowing it all out the window.
