Asked to highlight a pivotal moment in the Kyle Rittenhouse case that made it successful, Rittenhouse’s attorney says “getting rid of the first two lawyers,” Lin Wood and John Pierce.
Video at 5:05 mark
Lin Wood is a piece of shite that had no problem leaving him in jail to raise money for himself and was on track into grifting this innocent kid into a life sentence and forever separated from his innocent family.
Thank god Kyle and his family got smart and dumped this POS like a hot potato.
And now Lin Wood is trying to steal the bail money and use it for himself.
Lin Wood is trying to claw back the $2 million he raised for Kyle Rittenhouse's bail
quote:
The right-wing lawyer and conspiracy theorist Lin Wood is seeking to take back $2 million his foundation raised from donors to post bail for Kyle Rittenhouse, the teenager accused of shooting three people at Black Lives Matter protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin, court documents show.
A September 17 letter said the funds to free Rittenhouse on bail had been provided by Wood's #FightBack Foundation, and therefore must eventually be returned to the foundation.
The letter was signed by a lawyer, Xavier Solis, who said he was working on behalf of #FightBack. Wood and another conservative attorney, John Pierce, launched the foundation last year to support Rittenhouse, though the organization later pivoted to funding efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election.
"The Rittenhouse bail was paid by #FightBack Foundation, a 501(c)(4) non-profit, from donations it received," Wood told Insider Thursday in an email. "Under law, the bail monies must be returned to #FightBack."
Rittenhouse and his family have since cut ties with Wood, Pierce, and #FightBack, and said they never received a full accounting of all the money that was raised in Rittenhouse's name. Wood previously told Insider that the foundation kept detailed financial records and never mismanaged any funds.
A Twitter account associated with Rittenhouse's family slammed Wood for the September 17 letter.
"Money makes people do silly things," the account tweeted. "While we're busting our humps trying to raise money and see Kyle acquitted, Lin Wood is sending letters to the court DURING Kyle's hearing to demand $2M in donations FOR KYLE be given to HIM."
Rittenhouse, 18, will stand trial in November on charges of fatally shooting Anthony Huber and Joseph Rosenbaum and severely injuring Gaige Grosskreutz in August 2020. The teenager opened fire amid a night of civil unrest just days after Kenosha police shot Jacob Blake. Rittenhouse has said he shot the men in self-defense as they chased him.

Even Trump endorsed his opponent when he ran for South Carolina GOP Chairman.
Not only is he a grifter, he's gotten so batshit crazy that his own children have banned him from ever seeing his grandkids again.

SDVTiger tells me he took CNN for at least $50 million on behalf of the Sandmann.

Lin Wood does have a track record , but yeah, for what ever reason, he would have gotten Kyle serious jail time.

I'm coming around to the theory that Sandmann didn't get anywhere near the money he was suing for.
I suspect that WaPo and the democrat media complex fee paid a nuisance fee to make the suits go away and that being contingent on Sandmann's camp agreeing to remain confidential about the agreement and not acknowledge any details about the fee that was paid to Sandmann no matter how big or small it was.
As far as I know, Sandmann or anyone associated with him hasn't acknowledged any details about the payout fwiw.
If that's indeed the case, I absolutely hate it for Sandmann as he deserved to bankrupt the democrat media complex for their disgusting lies.

Sandman was on Tuck earlier and said he has 6 defamation cases still going.

I hope every single one of them is successful and he has a real attorney that's worth a shite and not the disgraced loony grifter Lin Wood.

Yeah, these guys assuming he got hundreds of millions are ridiculous. I think it was powerman and maybe boosie who were rational. Not sure about their numbers. I bet he won like $10 or $20 million and netted about half to two-thirds of either after the attorney got paid.

More like $100,000-$250,000 that WaPo or whomever would have paid their lawyers to defend it.
String a few of those together and you may get into real money but no defendant paid him more than $1 million just because he got through a motion to dismiss.

What is the story behind the King of Kenosha dumping the Georgia Grifter?

Fair enough, good info. I had no idea the numbers would really be that low after all the sound and fury about how Sandmann is some alpha hero who broke the system.

Read this, it has the entire back story about not just Lin Wood but also John Pierce who was just dirty as Lin Wood is.
LINK
The highlights....
quote:
Rittenhouse’s lead counsel Mark Richards slammed Pierce as the genesis of some of the tactics which increased — rather than mitigated — public scorn for the teen.
“His first lawyer was more interested in promoting himself than representing Kyle,” Richards said after being asked about Rittenhouse’s controversial photo with the Proud Boys. “And he did things with Kyle that never should have been done.”
quote:
Richards blamed Pierce for incidents that included a trip Rittenhouse took to Miami. The meeting was supposed to have been with the leader of the Proud Boys. When Rittenhouse learned of the plan, he called his mother and departed the city, Richards said.
“And Mr. Pierce was not his lawyer after that,” Richards added.
quote:
Though the group raised millions for Rittenhouse’s bail, his mother Wendy Rittenhouse says it never provided an accounting of the money, which her son’s prosecutors described in a legal filing as a “slush fund.” In an exclusive interview with Law&Crime, Wendy Rittenhouse painted Wood and Pierce as politically motivated self-promoters.
“They used Kyle to gain money, gain Twitter followers,” Wendy Rittenhouse told Law&Crime’s Adam Klasfeld in a March interview for the podcast “Objections.”
“I felt now they didn’t care about Kyle,” she added.
Wendy Rittenhouse also claimed that Wood left her son in jail because of his theory of a post-2020 election “Armageddon.”
“He told me that my son would be safe in jail because he thought that on the night of the election — was Nov. 3 or the fourth, I can’t remember what day the election was on — that there was going to be Armageddon going to happen,” she said. “And Kyle was safer in jail.”

Link?
If there was ever a time to defame LWood on Twitter and post it here this could be it.
When will you do that?

Lin Wood has made himself defamation-proof.
