As a result of the Ramseys’ interest in establishing that Linda
Hoffmann-Pugh was involved in the kidnap/ murder of JonBenet, the plaintiff has unnecessarily become the subject of unflattering and intrusive attention by law enforcement and the media, causing her extreme humiliation, embarrassment, and emotional distress. She has also been exposed to public hatred, contempt, and ridicule in the small community of Platteville, Colorado, where she lives and works.

The Ramseys did NOT state that LHP was involved - - NYL is lying and I want to know why he can't be sued for that!

Wahhh, a child was dead and they were investigating a murder. She worked for the family, had asked for a loan so obviously needed money... the cops spoke to her - - such is life -- deal with it. The Ramseys' book had NOTHING to do with that - - and aren't they being sued for damage done by the book???

and the media,
Wait a minute - - LHP opened her door to the media, gave interviews, SOLD interviews. She was on the phone with Coffman when the cops knocked onher door to talk to her about the possibility of her daughter's image being on porn sites. She called Larry Schiller to tell him about it right after the cops left. How can she say that the Ramsey book was the source of unflattering and unwanted attention when SHE was selling the stories beforehand? She was working for Schiller and giving him all kinds of info for his book.

causing her extreme humiliation, embarrassment, and emotional distress.
Give me a break. SHE was the one going public for money - - that wasn't humiliating or embarassing or upsetting but when the Ramseys put her name in their book she lost it? How about what was in the Thomas book? The drinking and the soft tacos because Mervin had no teeth. THAT was OK?

Clearly these lawsuits are attacks on the Ramseys, have nothing to do with LHP's embarassment. NYL and LHP hope to get some cash -- and publidity.

She has also been exposed to public hatred, contempt, and ridicule in the small community of Platteville, Colorado, where she lives and works.

Where she lived - - that wasn't in the book and she moved there YEARS after the murder - - I know she was in Fort Lupton in the summer of 1998. Her photo wasn't in the book. If she was recognized by people it was more likely because she had been in the tabloids and on TV.

Why is she the object of ridicule? Is it because she was questioned about a crime? Well, there's a large percentage of people walking this earth who got reasons to sue.

Is it because she works as a housekeepeer and paper deliverer? Those are HER choices and have nothing to do with the papers.

Did some kid call her fat on the street? Is that John and Patsy's fault as well?

Or could it be because of who SHE is and what SHE chose to do with her life?

SHE went public with stories about her ex-employers - - I sure wouldn't hire her!

She was on the cover of a tabloid - "telling all" (and then some more just for good measure) and she brought her daughter with her. I wouldn't consider confiding in her my shoe size, never mind anything important.

If people don't want anything to do with Linda, I doubt it is because of the Ramsey book. I think it is because
Linda is scum - - she showed the world and now has to deal with it.

I sat with the Ramseys and we talked about LHP. They didn't say a single bad thing about her.

I can swear to that in court.

But Linda herself, her words and her actions... SHE convinced me she is a useless bit of humanity.
