By Bob Unruh WND December 22, 2020 An actor who pranked former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore has been ordered to answer questions from Moore’s lawyer in a $95 million defamation case. Larry Klayman told WND he had to argue for even a limited interview with Sacha Baron Cohen, contending the comedian is being protected by the legal system. “This is part and parcel to not just Obama and Clinton judges, but Republican establishment judges, which President Trump has mistakenly appointed,” he said. “We’re confident we will ultimately prevail in this lawsuit.” Continue Reading…..
Courthouse News December 21, 2020 Over two years after he embarrassed Roy Moore in a prank interview featuring a purported pedophile-detection wand, Sacha Baron Cohen will have to sit for an hour of questioning in the former Alabama judge’s defamation case. Moore seeks $95 million in damages after making an unwitting guest appearance on Cohen’s satirical Showtime series “Who Is America?” Donning one of his trademark disguises in the ambush, Cohen posed as a counterterrorism expert to interview Moore, the former judge who saw his 2017 Senate run derailed by sexual misconduct allegations involving underage girls.
