A jury has ordered a female blogger to pay an Army colonel she accused of rape a total of $8.4million in damages.

Susan Shannon, 52, who now lives in Everett, Washington, first alleged that she was sexually assaulted by Army Colonel David 'Wil' Riggins in 1986, while they were both cadets, on her blog in 2013.

She said she waited three decades to come forward about her experience because of the army's 'code of silence'.

I think Kavanaugh has too much class to pursue a lawsuit after this is all over, but one can dream.

How about throwing her lying ass in PRISON! When a woman makes a false allegation of rape she needs to be thrown behind bars, period!

I disagree. I think he would do it to clear his name.

His lawyer, from what I’ve heard, is an expert in defamation. So I wouldn’t be too sure he has too much class. Of course, I disagree with your idea that suing someone for their reputation is classless. Quite the opposite, I think. I hope Judge Kavanaugh destroys her.

As a public figure, Kavanaugh would have a very hard time winning a defamation case. But this article DOES explain one big reason why Ford cant testify. She will be asked about the OTHER people she named in her letter to Feinstein, and once she names them in sworn testimony on national television she will be exposed to lawsuits from THEM.

P.S. -- This is also the reason why Feinstein refuses to turn over the letter with the names unredacted.

He seems like too nice a guy to do that. If he did, I’d contribute to his go fund me account and hope he hired the most aggressive lawyer and investigators he could find. I’d drive this bimbo insane, broke and hopefully off the GG Bridge.

And, I hope and pray with all of my heart, that Judge Kavanaugh has enough courage to go after this woman for the sake of every person who in the future, male or female, will false false allegations. Please God, do not fill Judge Kavanaugh with moral cowardice and justify it to himself as “class.” Judge Kavanaugh must for the sake of this nation, for the sake of every poor innocent soul languishing in prison, for the sake of every poor innocent soul listed on a sexual predator list crushed and beaten to the earth, go after this woman. He has the means, he has the knowledge, he has the public fame, to do something incredible for these pitiful tragic people. Ignoring such wickedness because it is “classy” would be a sin, in my book.

He should do something, because this TRIAL BY MOB has gone on far too damned long and no matter what, he WILL be tarred with this allegation forever.

Correction: “who will experience a false allegation.”

Judges aren’t really “public figures”, in the way you are inferring they are.

There are criminal penalties for making false claims, and they need to be used.

Lying bitches claiming victim status need to go to prison to remove that romantic little girl victim syndrome.

I have heard countless stories by girls claiming to have been raped. I see them as nothing but sexual fantasies.

I’ve heard from little girls having been raped by strange gangs on the side of the road to having been raped on the hood a car in the garage by FBI agents.

All sexual fantasies.

“As a public figure, Kavanaugh would have a very hard time winning a defamation case. “

Not when it is clear it was intended to do harm. That is settle law. Any Internet idiot claiming otherwise is just an Internet idiot.

Kavanaugh should be thinking in his head. The liberals will pay dearly for this when I am on the court.

Too bad Kavanaugh was not more Trumpish. Is so he would have sued her ass as soon as she raised her ugly head last week
