He recently asked a federal judge in Manhattan to dismiss the lawsuit and order monetary sanctions against Tony Buzbee, the Texas attorney who sued over the alleged incident in October.
According to him, the r*pe claim suffers from substantial inaccuracies which should have led Buzbee to drop the lawsuit, and even the woman’s father told NBC News he had no memory of picking his distraught young daughter up from the after-party and driving her home as described in the lawsuit.
He added that the factual discrepancies are neither isolated nor surprising, they are as a result of Tony’s rush to launch allegations unhindered by mandatory diligence.
His words, “It strains credulity. That a father — impelled to jump into his car in the middle of the night to undertake a minimum 10-hour round trip to pick up his 13-year-old daughter at a random gas station—would forget the entire episode.
A single, initial media interview turned up glaring problems that counsel had either ignored or never investigated.
Calling this a ‘memory lapse’ cannot obscure counsel’s lapses in investigating whether multi-decade-old recollections aligned with reality.
These factual discrepancies are neither isolated nor surprising. They result from Mr. Buzbee’s rush to launch allegations unhindered by mandatory diligence.”
WOW.
