Scottsdale parents who discovered secret dossier compiled to silence their speech announce lawsuit
Fox News ^ | May 6, 2022 | Tyler O'Neil

Greenburg and his father reportedly kept a dossier on 47 parents who dared to speak out against his policies at school board meetings — a dossier complete with Social Security numbers, background checks, a divorce paper, mortgage documents, trade certifications, and screenshots of Facebook posts. The lawsuit claims that the defendants "misused District resources and what should have been private, protected parent communications to the District to retaliate against Plaintiffs for their protected speech."

The dossier also includes videos showing a man taking photographs of parents and children in the hours before a school board meeting. "Somewhere around here we have a private investigator who's writing down all of their plates," the man says in the video. "They don't know it's me … I covered up my license plate."

Parents also highlighted a video from the dossier in which a speaker says, "I really want Edmond to die. I’ll be so happy, I’ll have a f---ing party," alluding to a vocal parent whom Greenburg has sued for defamation.

The parents bring five counts against defendants: (1) First Amendment retaliation for chilling their free speech; (2) deprivation of First Amendment rights by blocking them from Jann-Michael Greenburg's official Facebook account; (3) intentional and (4) negligent infliction of emotional distress by compiling sensitive personal information, the revelation of which led Wray to vomit; (5) defamation by including on the drive a bankruptcy filing belonging to an "Amanda J. Ross," falsely suggesting that Amanda Wray – whose maiden name is Ross – had filed for bankruptcy; and (6) false light invasion of privacy by suggesting that Wray – a financial planner – had filed for bankruptcy.

The parents ask the court for "general, special, and consequential damages," for punitive damages...

A “dossier”? No, it’s an enemies list by a school board. Parents are the enemies.

Government protects itself, from the local school board to Fedzilla.

“Former Scottsdale school board President Jann-Michael Greenburg.”

Goodnesth.

I thought this was already exposed, looked into, and judged ‘legal’, because all that data is public information already.
It is still highly unethical for any school board to do that, but ethics and standards don’t get much attention these days when it’s the school board or teachers doing the offending.

I know we all obsess over national politics, but the local entities have much more direct day to day effect on our lives.

We’re dealing with totalitarians and commie thugs within the ‘teachers’ Unions... Spying on parents at this level is not ‘your fathers’ old style school board tactic...

Greenburg is a Democrat who has donated money to Seth Blattman (D) and Eric Kurland (D). ‘Nuff said

Some are seeing it now. Too late maybe. The woke and the Soros thugs targeted these offices and have managed to erode the foundation of our country

They should be taken out behind the school and have the crap knocked out of them.

It’s Scottsdale, I think $40 Million would be sufficient to get them to change their ways

What puzzles me is not that they did it, the prog are about the most unbalanced pack of nut-jobs on the planet, but what did they think they were going to do with the info?

Legal but menacing. Good way to get your lamp blowed out. I sure wouldn’t do it to parents if I was a school board member.

Glad to see them going after these petty tyrants! Sadly, the District will likely cover their legal expenses.
