Rally to recall Filner fizzles
Hurry, ladies! You can call the Sheriff's BobFilner Hotline. Your privacy will be protected unless you testify, and then you will be subjected to cross-examination in a deposition or at a criminal trial. Somehow this circus got out of hand. Will there be DNA swabs and pelvic exams? This makes the McMartin case small potatoes. There must be thousands of victims already. Not!— July 20, 2013 6:03 a.m.
Filner case is falling apart at the seams
Agreed as to Saldana and Channel 10. Those statements were about actions alleged to be two or more years ago. There was no corroboration. Therefore both defendants were reckless as to the proof or falsity thereof, I.e., the statements were made with malice. This is nothing more than gossip. Civil Code section 47 (b) makes statements made in the course of litigation absolutely privileged. These new allegations were not yet the subject of litigation. Briggs may not represent these victims. Gonzalez said that his firm might, There may be more corroboration with the latest victims' allegations, but I could also see their conduct being on the outside of the litigation privilege.

Filner case is falling apart at the seams
An undercover bingo caught on video? Bob Filner is accused of twice "jamming his tongue" down the same woman's mouth. Now that is inherently impossible. My respect for attorneys Briggs and Gonzalez and the tearful Donna Frye fell.— July 19, 2013 12:17 p.m.
Todd Gloria Mayoral signs ready pre-Pride and Filner has NOT even resigned!!
It's not nice to harass women. If they come forward, they can be cross-examined to see if the developers are behind this effort. There are billions of dollars at stake for developers who want lax regulations. If the complaints were made by many credible women who lack bias and whose complaints are corroborated, then we can trust that Filner would resign. But the fact that there is so much money at stake for developers casts doubt in my mind. There is no urgency. Let's see "due process" and examine the witnesses under oath.— July 18, 2013 6:03 p.m.
