The judge presiding over the defamation suit filed by Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer reminded Kari Lake and her attorneys in a Wednesday filing exactly what a default judgment means - she had given up on defending herself.
“While I followed the law and respected the will of millions of Arizona voters after the 2022 election, the defendants chose to engage in a concerted campaign to destroy my reputation, threaten my livelihood, and rob me and my loved ones of our safety and well-being,” Richer said in a statement when he filed the suit.
Since then, Lake has repeatedly said that she was ready to fight Richer’s suit, and just two months ago she wrote on social media that she was looking forward to the discovery process, wherein both sides would have to turn over things like texts and emails pertinent to the case.
That’s one of the reasons she and her attorneys’ decision to essentially concede that Richer’s claims are true seemed so abrupt.
These people never get better. Just worse.
Bullshit is as bullshit does & Kari is as 100% pure as it comes.
