Kimberlin's Phony "Peace Order" Against Aaron Walker Vacated
Reginald Bours, Attorney to the Stars, doing some fine work.
Also doing some fine work -- Judge Rupp.
Kimberlin made a number of statements, but his basic argument boiled down to Walker wanted to encourage people to blog about Kimberlin to incite others to harass him and send him death threats. As evidence, Kimberlin again had pages of Twitter feeds and blog posts.
This time, though, Judge Rupp did something extraordinary that Judge Vaughey did not. He actually looked at the evidence Kimberlin presented. After looking at them, Rupp declared, “I see nothing in here that threatens you personally.”
Kimberlin maintained that Walker was harassing him and engaging in cyberstalking.
Bours questioned Kimberlin regarding the Maryland stalking statute:
Bours: Has Mr. Walker been anywhere near you, except court, since April 19? Has he followed you in a public place?
Kimberlin: No.
Bours: Has he threatened you?
Kimberlin: Not directly.
Then Bours asked Kimberlin about Walker’s recent “swatting” experience, in which someone posing as Walker called the police saying that Walker had shot his wife (see here.) Specifically, Bours asked Kimberlin if he’d had anything to do with it or was aware of anyone who did.
That definitely got under Kimberlin’s skin. His voice rose in anger as he denounced the implication as a “despicable smear.”
Hit that first link to find another judge shutting down a blogger over phony "harassment" claims. A Massachusetts woman was involved in a hit-and-run; she seems to have been given very lenient treatment, and the suspicion is she was given lenient treatment because she's the daughter of a top corrections official.
A blogger blogged about this, and the hit-and-run woman claimed the same phony "harassment" that Kimberlin did.
