Proving a defamation suit is an incredibly high bar legally, I think that’s one of the most common misconceptions people have about the law. I’m not a lawyer, but to me this seems to be nowhere near reaching the standard of defamation. And if you sue and lose, which is the most likely thing in a defamation case by a mile, you often have to pay the attorneys fees (although I’m not sure this is true for Washington and I’m too lazy to look it up).Baseman said:

So, Lemme get this straight ... If Gee senior wasn't such an ongoing asshole all this probably would have just remained in the shadows of rumor?
Good job Gee senior. Way to add gasoline to the smoldering ashes and relight the fire... -
Elon Musk called one of the Thai cave rescue divers a "pedo guy" on twitter to his millions of followers, doubled down with "betcha a signed dollar its true", and then tripled down in an email to a buzzfeed reporter asking buzzfeed to look into it and insinuating the pedo claim was factual and based on an investigation he had done.*OreDawg said:

Jury took 20 minutes to acquit.
*turned out a British ex-con scammed Elon for $50k and pretended to do an investigation to prove the guy was indeed a pedophile but did nothing. -

I am interested to see what happens to the other players known to be involved. Hector filmed and sent it yes but he didn't engage in the activity.
I would be highly, highly surprised to see OSU do the right thing here. -
So, obviously we're not posting it here, but are the names of the other 4 or 5 100% confirmed to be known or are we just speculating?

tOSU won't do the right thing. Wilcox will. He is a Pete guy

There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know.jhfstyle24 said:

Unless YOU have proof in HAND...it’s speculation for YOU. ‘Those who know’....meaning YOU are not a ‘THOSE’. I didn’t create the English language but ‘speculation’ is pretty cut and dry. Unless you are an eye witness, YOU are speculating. Word of mouth is not proof.CallMeBigErn said:

To get fees, the respondent would have to prove the suit was frivolous. There are plenty of arguments the “aggrieved” can make. So, getting fees ain’t happening.OreDawg said:

As far as the claim. King 5 got the FOIA documents months ago and so far sat on the story. That should tell you something.
Often in these situations, deep pocketed plaintiffs file suit and paper the other side with discovery requests. If the respondent is a minor with rich parents, it gets interesting.
Ill LIPO and just be peepin’ Either way... -
Defamation suits are one of the biggest wastes of time. You have to prove negligence, harm, and that the statement was maliciously false.OreDawg said:

Also, anytime you file suit on someone it should be because they have assets or insurance worth your time. Suing an 18 year old running a parody twitter account is a waste of time unless you like burning money for no reason. -

Thought the malice part only applies to public figures? Unless you can make the argument prominent high school athletes are public figures (hmm). Moot point though because there is no clear disregard for the truth in publishing/referencing a police report, right? In fact, the opposite.RatherBeBrewing said:
