Nancy Grace sued for continuing to describe man cleared by police a ‘textbook serial killer’

Source: Raw Story



<snip>

The photo came from Seibert’s personal Facebook page, and police aren’t sure why it was found on the woman’s phone.

Police notified Grace that same month that her broadcasts about the case were false, but she continued to show his photo on the air.

Seibert filed a defamation lawsuit against Grace seeking more than $100,000 in damages.

<snip>

The lawsuit points out that Grace has made “outrageous and defamatory” about other cases and suspects during her broadcasts and notes that she had been reprimanded in court for unethical conduct during her nine years as a prosecutor.

From there, actual and punitive damages will be awarded by the jury based on the trial.

the pain of others. I hope the person wins their suit, unfortunately it won't be Grace who pays, it will be the network's insurance company.

If enough people sued her, eventually the network would drop her because she is costing them too much.
