It’s pretty demoralizing to see how many people accept at face value a totally anonymous lawsuit backed by Norm Lubow. The plaintiff never made any court appearances and the suit was withdrawn or dismissed each time, in the first case because nobody even lived at the address “she” gave.
Ultimately Lubow recruited a patent lawyer to run the case who also apparently never met her. Then a real lawyer set up a press conference for her. This was the first time any journalist got to meet her in person - and it was the Daily Mail. They reported it was all made up and the case and “Katie Johnson” disappeared forever.
But still it keeps coming up again and again, because people really want to believe their political enemies are evil. I guess it’s no different than the conspiracy theories Clinton was killing people. I just hope we as a country get better.
