Debunking Juda Engelmayer’s “No Contemporaneous Reports” Claim, Alexander Brothers Case
Let’s take a closer look at the argument that “no contemporaneous reports” means there’s no real evidence. Juda Engelmayer keeps repeating the claim that there’s no “objective evidence” because no one filed medical records or police reports at the time these alleged assaults occurred. But that argument relies on a fundamental misunderstanding, not just of … Read more
The Aryan Fantasy: Richard Luthmann’s Descent into Neo-Nazi Rhetoric
Richard Luthmann has finally stopped pretending. In a move that signals the total collapse of his mental faculties, the disbarred felon has graduated from mere xenophobia to full-blown Aryan racial theory.

The Anatomy of a Xenophobic Smear … Read more
Frank Parlato’s State vs. Federal Red Herring
Both Parlato and the Alexander brothers’ legal team have argued that the case is, at most, “date rapes” that belong in state court, claiming the federal government is “overreaching” by using the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA). This is a strategic attempt to minimize the gravity of the crimes.
Luthmann’s Lazy Red-Baiting of Danesh Noshirvan
Richard Luthmann is running out of legal arguments, so he’s reaching for the oldest play in the Right Wing Handbook: the Antifa boogeyman. His latest attempt to label Danesh Noshirvan an agitator is a desperate, fact-free smear designed to rile up a specific political base while ignoring the reality of Noshirvan’s work as a digital … Read more
