[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]lolol.  Wright was their teacher and he had affairs with multiple female law students.  He was in a position of power over them and took them to conferences with him where (surprise!) there was only one bedroom and only one bed.

Newsflash:  teachers, don’t sleep with your students.

His basic defense was that his students benefitted from their sexual relationship with them because he procured internships and jobs for them — well, at least until he lost interest.

Wright used to be a Commissioner on the FTC and a law professor at Scalia school of Law at George Mason. He now has none of those positions.  George Mason investigated him and as a result he resigned:  “ Wright resigned from George Mason following eight allegations of sexual misconduct from former students, and a determination by George Mason University that he violated university policies relating to consensual relationships and professional ethics that constituted grounds for termination.”

But please, yes, go off on how Joshua Wright is a wronged and misunderstood man just like Baldoni. I beg you to do this.

I'm not defending Wright, I'm criticizing Dorsey, there's actual a distinction. Wright sounds like a weird loser who had it coming, but Dorsey also sounds like a grifter who got upset Wright was seeing other women. [/quote]

Just another woman failing to meet that ineffable perfect victim standard, I guess. Let me know when you find one. Dorsey was nearly bankrupted by Wright’s defamation suit, even though in his deposition he couldn’t explain his claimed damages and wound up abruptly leaving.  But sure, go off speculating she’s a grifter. A++

Here’s what Wikipedia said about Wright’s $108M damages claim, which is 4x smaller than Baldoni’s:

“Landry's motion noted Wright's "eye-popping" $108 million damages claim was "more than double the amount Johnny Depp sought when making defamation claims related to multi-billion dollar movie franchises," and quoted Wright as saying he might file "defamation for fun but not to win," that he intended to "Raise the cost," "Break her" and potentially "bankrupt" her, referred to defendants as "b******," and agreed he would like to "make their lives hell." Wright responded that he never instructed attorneys to drive up the costs of litigation and that he "filed the lawsuit because lies were told about me that did immense damage."”

Aww, poor guy. Those hurtful, hurtful “lies” worth 4 times as much to Baldoni.[/quote]

It sounds like you just don’t believe in defamation suits.  Reputational damages for high earners are always going to be high.  [/quote]

Note that Dorsey didn’t sue Wright for SH or anything by she just, I believe, filed a complaint with the school and spoke publicly about Wrights actions while she was his student that led to the complaint.

I guess you guys think it was a good idea and totally fair for him to bring this defamation lawsuit against two of his former students, where he literally admitted he was trying to bankrupt them and was doing it for “fun” and not because it was right. One wonders if there is a defamation suit against women who claim SH that you wouldn’t like.  Seems like you’re much more concerned about the men. Which fits. [/quote]
