Q. Did you post anything in The Jury Room?
A. I posted that I had filed suit.
Q. Did you do that before it became public knowledge?
A. No. It was after.
Q. Do you remove any posts about this lawsuit after it was filed?
A. Did I what?
Q. Remove posts from the website, from Websleuths.
A. What type of posts?
Q. The posts about the lawsuit. Did you take any of them down off the website?
A. I'm not sure that I did. We didn't want our members discussing it. It would be -- I don't recall.
Q. Why didn't you want your members discussing it?
A. The damage it might do to the reputation; and that's why I kept it in the private area, too.
Q. Was The Jury Room a private area?
A. Yes, for members only.
Q. Maybe I'm -- we're back to the members problems, and that's not your fault.
A. Okay.
Q. We've done this to yourselves. So, let's clarify it as it applies here.
A. Okay.
Q. You said you didn't want members discussing it, but you posted in an area that was members only. So, I'd like to understand a little more about how that works. Maybe there's a distinction of members that you're using that I'm not familiar with. It's a problematic word in this context. I get that.
A. Right.
Q. You told me you didn't want members discussing it; is that correct?
A. Right.
Q. And when you say members in that context, who do you mean?
A. 70,000 members we have. I mean, it could get a little out of control; and all we've done is post the documents and -- so, they can read. And I just felt they should be aware. You know, they were going to find it anyway.
Q. And how many members had access to The Jury Room?
A. It would be all of our -- all of our members. But you have to be a member.
Q. Is that the 70,000?
A. Yeah.
Q. But you didn't want them discussing it?
A. No, not really.
Q. Why did you post in The Jury Room if you didn't -- about this lawsuit if you didn't want them discussing it?
A. Because as members, I thought they had a right to know it had already hit other websites.
Q. Did you -- did they begin discussing it on Websleuths?
A. I can't remember if they did or not. There was a thread, but I can't remember specifically if it was about the lawsuit.
Q. Okay.
At the beginning of this line of questioning we have the reason for letting members know about the suit ..

Q. Why did you intend for them to become aware of the lawsuit? Why did you want them to know about it?
A. In order to field any questions from members.
That must be why no discussion was allowed, so no questions could be asked / fielded / etc.
The only reason to post the lawsuit was to make everyone aware that Sue was taking Tricia to court, and to look for more of these so called 'victims of Tricia' which if they existed would have helped her legal case, none of which we have ever heard of, unless of course you count Raine1212 who started this whole mess, which nobody does really for the obvious reason.
