You Are The Jury – Author Of To Kill A Mockingbird Files Two Lawsuits

Covert Operation to Kill a Mocking Bird Files Two Lawsuits

When the news of Mark Twain’s death reached the United States, attorneys representing many of his former clients instantly sued the author. His two lawsuits, filed in Missouri and Illinois, claimed that he had personally consented to be a witness for two different lawyers in the O.J. Simpson case. In both cases, witnesses were called to testify about conversations between Simpson and Mockingbird in which the attorney was present. Some of the statements Simpson gave resulted in the death of one of the Simpson defendants and the acquittal of another.

General of Illinois

The attorney general of Illinois, Thomas Polk, promptly dismissed the complaints, claiming that the state had no jurisdiction over personal injuries that occurred outside the state. Mockingbird, however, claimed that he never consented to be a witness in any criminal trial, much less that of a civil suit against Simpson. He maintained that he had signed a written agreement with Simpson to be a witness and had never been asked by either attorney to disclose any information. The attorney general claimed that Mockingbird’s version of the story was inconsistent with fact and needed corroborating evidence to support it. This evidence, according to the attorney general, could come only from Simpson’s own mouth.

Mockingbird

The author of to kill a mockingbird, Irvin Kistemaker, and his associate, Vincent Roth, claimed in their lawsuit that they were maimed during a gunfight while attempting to photograph a robbery at gunpoint. During the struggle, Kistemaker was shot in the leg. Roth was hit in the chest and stomach. Both men, along with a third person, were wounded during the ensuing altercation. The attorney general argued that they were liable for damages because they had failed to protect themselves adequately with handguns.

The two lawsuits were settled out of court.

Kistemaker and Roth agreed to drop their claims against Simpson and signed an agreement to never sue the former NFL running back again. However, the agreement did not remove their liability for the incident. Kistemaker later received a settlement from the NFL, but was unable to continue his practice as a sports writer due to injury. He now works as an education consultant.

Another lawsuit involving an attempt to sue Simpson was brought against him by plaintiffs who claimed that he used the N-word during a conversation.

The case was settled out of court without going to trial. One of the attorneys involved in the lawsuit told reporters that he believed that Simpson had personally used the N-word during the discussions with the individuals who filed the suit. Though no court records were available, the attorney said that Simpson made use of the word during one of his meetings with a group of people, adding that he thought the person using the word was African-American.

• Finally, a man in his 70’s filed a suit against Simpson over an incident that happened in one of his golf games.
• According to the suit, Simpson poured a drink on the player who was hit by his ball.
• The player was taken to a local hospital in stable condition.

However, the man who was hit was unable to sue Simpson because the statute of limitations on such cases had expired. (You may also find that the statute of limitations for suing a celebrity is an issue in one of my articles.)

Robert Kennedy and Robert Simon

The plaintiffs in this case, Robert Kennedy and Robert Simon, are seeking a substantial amount of compensation for their pain and suffering. The attorneys representing the two men, John Jones and David Klein, are fighting back hard, claiming that the case against Simpson is “baseless.” They say that their clients did not file a personal injury lawsuit against Simpson due to “anxiety of litigation.” They also say that they will file additional suits against other defendants, all the while maintaining that Simpson is innocent of the crime.

Dr. King’s Advice

In one of his books, the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said, “I have a dream that one day, the white race will understand that it is its moral duty to help black people,” and that we must “remember that it is wrong to blame the victims for the misfortunes that occur.” This is a quote from an address delivered nearly 50 years ago, yet those who disagree with King’s philosophy forget that he was assassinated just months before he could carry out these ideas. Are we to follow Dr. King’s advice today? If we are, then we must protect the constitutional rights of all Americans, including those who dare to speak out against big business, corporate welfare, and corruption in our government. When the authors of To Kill a Mocking Bird files two lawsuits against Simpson, and if the civil case proceeds in their favor; and if the defense team on the other side is able to defeat the prosecution’s main argument in their favor, then there can be hope for civil rights advocates in America.
