Latest in the "Most Gullible Man In Cambridge?" saga

His (ex?-)wife.

I feel bad for the journalists who now have to defend against this ridiculous suit.

Nobody forced them to report this story.

I read the full complaint. I tried to take it in sincerity, but it reads like someone who has backslid into being a mark again. He said that all the things in the article were lies but he agreed with them because the *journalist* was the manipulator who wanted an amazing article and not the duo with a track record of other victims already suing them. Those guys are all just sore losers according to him (because he believes the duo when they say that they never did anything wrong). Then he claims he invited them to live in his house...but described it as them attempting to steal his house prior...because? He claims he suddenly remembers approving the duo withdrawing money from his accounts when he told the DA and the journalist that he never approved them...because manipulating outsiders convinced him that he must not have given them permission because those outsiders wanted him to think the duo were evil.

I mean come on. That doesn't pass any smell test. There's no obvious motivation (or names) for these outside manipulators and evidently the duo had some too who wanted them to think he was a sexual predator of sorts! I'm betting they even told him that's what happened to them when they started getting angry at him when he started to remove them from his life (but they weren't done sucking him dry).

This guy lost his wife, got suckered into loving the duo, lost them too, got laughed at by anonymous millions because HE sought out a journalist who would publish his story to hopefully take the duo down but ended up thrown under the bus by the writer and editor because it made for a better story...and now, after all that loss and grief, the duo returns to him because they KNOW he's an easy mark and cajole him into thinking that he should sue the magazine (for more money that they'll just rip out of his willing hands) because if the journalist hadn't written this article, then everything would have been fine between him and the duo?

Geezus fuck. I don't know if he's the most gullible, but he's definitely the most willing mark because he can't see past all his emotional baggage. It's a shame he's basically ended up completely alienated. There's nobody to save him (his ex-wife sure tried). He's theirs to do with as they please at this point. They have really fucked up his head. What a shame.

Pro se just literally means "for oneself". It means you are representing yourself. If you are a lawyer, then yourself just means you're qualified to do so as well.

They still say a lawyer representing themselves has a fool for a client. Not only is there a lot that goes into preparing the legal arguments as well as the witness/testimonial that would be better off if you have separate parties doing it. But there's the emotions, etc. that can cloud good judgement during the proceedings and things. Basically if you're the plaintiff or defendant, you should have a lawyer to do the lawyering things and you to do the testifying/witness/remembering things.

The assertion that someone impersonated one of the women and sent disparaging texts to fracture the relationship is what finally did me in. And my jaw certainly dropped at the mention of the Tsarnaev brothers.

It's been awhile since I read the article, but the lawsuit details the involvement of many, many other people who I don't remember from the article, so would not seem to be relevant to the lawsuit?
