Judge Roy Moore Loses His $95 Million Lawsuit Against Sacha Baron Cohen
Roy Moore has been a bit of an albatross for the Republican party. The former Alabama Supreme Court Justice won the states senate primary in 2017. Then came accusations of sexual misconduct with an underage girl.
Thanks to those accusations, Democrat Doug Jones was able to win the race in the incredibly red state. Jones remained a US senator for over 2 years before losing to Tommy Tuberville in 2020.
To add insult to injury, Moore was also involved in a comedy skit conducted by Sacha Baron Cohen. The Borat comedian hooked the GOP lawmaker by pretending to give him an award for support to Israel. Once Moore got there, Cohen scanned him with a pedophile detecting wand that began to beep.
In response to the segment, Moore and his wife sued the comedian for $95 million. U.S. District Judge John Cronan threw the suit out of court on Tuesday.
He wrote in a statement that the segment was, clearly a joke. It is simply inconceivable that the programs audience would have found a segment with Judge Moore activating a supposed pedophile-detecting wand to be grounded in any factual basis.
Moore and his wife, nonplussed by the decision. Their lawyer, Larry Klayman, said in a statement, Judge Cronans ruling makes no factual and legal sense. To the contrary, Judge Cronans dismissal is the joke, and more than a bad joke at that.

I followed the whole story of his getting that big, dopey monument inside the AL Supreme Court building. It was done literally in the dead of night, and one of his most vocal supporters, the late, noted Presbyterian whackadoodle D. James Kennedy was there with a crew to film it, the only media allowed in. Kennedys church (Coral Ridge Ministries) sold the video of the event to line their pockets.
After he was censured and kicked off the court by his fellow SC Judges and the monument was removed, he ran again for the court in 2013 AND WON! That time he was removed for defying a federal court order on same sex marriage.
Hes a fucking whackjob that likes little girls. He should die soon if there is any justice.
