We’re still waiting for Roy Moore to file his lawsuits against his accusers and against the Washington Post, aren’t we?
I've pondered this, and i'm pretty sure the Washington Post's defense is going to be that they just "report" the news, they didn't accuse him of anything. Therefore he has no legal cause of action against them.
For the women, (only two of them) they haven't got a pot to piss in, and there is nothing he can really threaten them with to get them to retract their claims. Also, I would expect any potential jury to be sympathetic to the women who will boo hoo and demand pity on the stand, while hysterically shrieking that he did horrible horrible things to them.
Moore's attorneys would have to attack their character and their life history, because I doubt there is much proof to be had one way or the other. The Three witnesses that put their names to statements saying Moore never went to the Hickory House will help Moore's case, but Jury's can be weird, and I have little doubt that the women will insist on having a Jury trial.
