Shortened title.

Full title: Attorney for Nick Sandmann: ‘Multitude of Civil Lawsuits Will Be Filed’ Over ‘False Accusations and Threats ‘ Against Covington Catholic Student

L. Lin Wood, recently retained by the family of Covington Catholic High School student Nick Sandmann issued a statement Friday afternoon promising a “multitude of civil lawsuits” against those who made “false accusations and threats” against Sandmann over the incident involving him and Native American activist Nathan Phillips last Friday in Washington, D.C.

Sandmann, 16, from Covington, Kentucky, was in D.C. with classmates from the private school for the annual March for Life. He and his fellow students were confronted by Phillips, 64, from Michigan, who was in town for the Indigenous Peoples March, at the Lincoln Memorial as they boys waited for buses to pick them up. Phillips approached the students while loudly banging a drum and chanting in a language the boys could not understand. Phillips stepped up to Sandmann, drumming and chanting within inches of the boy’s face. Sandmann, who was wearing a red Trump MAGA hat, stood and smiled as Phillips pounded and chanted.

Video clips cut to make Sandmann look like a bully went viral on the Internet on the day after, prompting a firestorm of hate and threats against Sandmann by celebrities, politicians, media, church and school officials.

Tired of talk.

Before this is over, you’ll see a new legal form: the inverted class action law suit. One plaintiff and a class of certified defendants.

I hope they sue the bastards so much that they get enough money to pay for sandman’s education if he wanted to stay in college until he dies of old age at 150 years old.

Lawsuits over incitement and threats don’t have to surmount a public figure barrier. Some of the incitements would trouble even lib jurors.

Circle the lying mediots and open fire with legal salvos until none of them have a penny left.

Then, do the same to the rectums, who hired these thugs.

Would be great if he goes after that dumb bitch Kathy Griffin. Take her house. Then drop it on her.

This lawyer is a take-no-prisoners kind of guy with a long reputation who would not take this case if he couldn’t inflict some serious financial pain on these jokers (and make some good $ for Nick and himself).

Also, I learned that the legal standard is different when defamation of a minor is involved. Something these hotshot libs are about to learn the hard way. It’s because of cyberbullying laws, that are designed to protect kids. The parents must file on behalf of their minor children who because they are minors generally cannot suffer financial loss. Just wait til this guy gets done with ‘em...

Good. I really hope they go after Kathy Griffin, Jack Morrisey and that ‘congresswoman’ from Somalia.

I think it’s a good bet that social media giants like Twitter and Facebook are going to be included among the defendants.

His nickname “Attorney for the Damned“ When he smells blood he is a killer. If people ain’t scared, they should be. I’d start by getting the scalp of that lying non-vet. What a lawyer to have on your side.

“Attorney for Sandmann: ‘Multitude of Civil Lawsuits Will Be Filed’”

Break them.

Break the guilty to bits.

Make examples that will discourage future misbehavior.

Now that you mention it, you may be correct about “certified defendants”
