Even though it has nothing to do with this case that whole thing about the ex-Gawker guy putting up an image of a nobody girl getting hosed in a bathroom and then going "tough break that's life" when begged to take it down doesn't exactly make Gawker seem like the good guys either. Can we just put that guy and Hogan in jail?

i also understand the judge has been coming across v poorly both from her inexplicable rulings to seal the fbi documents and to quash bubba's subpoena and one of those has already been overturned but basically what a trial i will miss it

Maybe the jury will rule in favor of The Hulkster and we'll get the rematch at Summerfest.

So what's the deal with these documents? Why are they being released now as opposed to earlier?

The documents are going to reveal Hogan was born a poor black child. He remembers the days, sittin' on the porch with his family, singin' and dancin' down in Mississippi. BROTHER!

If the only information there is "Bubba said Hulk knew" without any actual evidence, I can see why it might have gotten excluded. Bubba could have lots of financial reasons to claim that at the time and lacking any proof, it just muddies the waters.

it's important to remember, when discussing the judgement of the judge presiding over this case, that she was the legal counsel for the parents of terry schiavo who kept advising them to sue the husband for murder

and she's a publicly elected official who doesn't face re-election until 2021.

Since IANAL and this is civil court and not criminal, does that mean that the judge doesn't have the ability to hold Bubba in contempt of court if he refuses to testify? Or is it a matter that this judge appears to have a dubious idea of how the law works and there's no guarantee she'd do that?

# ? Mar 18, 2016 20:33 |

the judge is now refusing to give any journos a copy of the blank verdict form the jury is using which just seems spiteful

Or is it a matter that this judge appears to have a dubious idea of how the law works and there's no guarantee she'd do that? he already refused to testify and the judge went a step further. whereas typically if someone was going to plead the 5th the court would probably make them come sit on the stand and do it in person, the judge quashed the subpoena and said he didn't have to come. this is important because the defense would have been able to communicate things to the jury by asking him questions that he refused to answer

Everyone in this case is scum including the judge. That said, Hogan only had a short window to make the tape which conveniently came right after 2 major financial disasters for Hogan. If he was in on the idea of making a sex tape with his friend Bubba then you can bet that this whole lawsuit was setup by design for Hogan to get back some of that son-who-made-friend-brain-dead and cheated-on-my-wife money he was losing. I'll let the world's greatest detective sum it up.

Additionally, the jury was not told why Bubba could not appear. The actual reason is that his statements have been... contradictory...and the he's pleading the 5th due to perjury fears. Jurors were merely told that he was unavailable. Unless the jury comes back very quickly, I'm guessing that we'll see a mistrial. Reasoning will be that the jury was tainted when the judge was overturned on appeal and documents unsealed. I'm also halfexpecting to find out the judge is Nick Patrick in drag. She has been... something.

Did bubba lie to the FBI or the other folks? I would imagine the FBI wouldn't be people you would lie to. Also even if hulkster knew about the recording shouldn't Gawker lose for not pulling it on request?
