Nick Denton And Michael Barrett Skid Into Bankruptcy Over Perverted Voyeurism In Secretly Spying On Others Via Video


Hulk Hogan

The financial price of being perverts is hitting home with Gawker's Nick Denton and perverse private citizen, Michael Barrett, who are in bankruptcy court in separate cases over massive multi-million dollar financial judgments being levied against them. Denton illegally uploaded secretly recorded video of wrestler Hulk Hogan having sex with Heather Clem. Barrett stalked, hacked off the peephole of the hotel suite sportscaster Erin Andrews stayed in while on assignment for the ESPN network, used his mobile phone camera to secretly record her naked in the room, then uploaded it to the internet like a real degenerate.

 
   
Nick Denton
 
Denton and his company Gawker were hit with a $140,000,000 court judgment. Denton is liable for a portion of the judgment. Hence, Denton preparing to file personal bankruptcy. However, if other cases serve as an example, it will not benefit Denton much in a personal filing. Here's why. Barrett was hit with a $27,000,000 judgment from the Andrews civil case. The bankruptcy court has already ruled Barrett cannot discharge the court debt under his filing. 


Erin Andrews
 
Therefore, Barrett is still indebted to Andrews, who can garnish his wages until every dime is paid ($27,000,000). Barrett complained it is difficult obtaining work being a felon, as he served time for the criminal offense. However, Barrett created the situation he is currently in via his illegal conduct. Other felons have found work and so can he. Every time his paycheck is docked to pay Andrews, he can remember how he destroyed her life, as she has to live with what he did in violating her privacy in a very sick way.


Michael Barrett
 
In closing, all voyeurs should face prison time and hefty fines. It is a sick crime perpetrated by sexual predators and sex offenders. It is extremely sick and deranged to secretly watch someone in their home, hotel room, toilets or anywhere else privacy is to be expected. It is a sign of serious mental illness that is a danger to the public.

Bankruptcy Judge Denies Gawker's Efforts to Shield Nick Denton from Hulk Hogan
 
July 19, 2016 3:07pm PT - A rejected injunction motion likely means personal bankruptcy for the Gawker founder. A rejected injunction motion likely means personal bankruptcy for the Gawker founder. Gawker founder Nick Denton appears headed for personal bankruptcy after a bankruptcy judge on Tuesday refused to stop Hulk Hogan's collection pursuits. Denton had hoped that Gawker's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filed on June 10 would give him temporary relief from his portion of a $140 million judgment in favor of Hogan, who prevailed in an invasion-of-privacy lawsuit over the posting of a sex tape... 

Denton, who has gotten a $200,000 loan and has at least prepared bankruptcy papers, may now move quickly to file for personal bankruptcy so as to take advantage of an automatic stay that will result in pausing Hogan's collection pursuits. Denton has testified that his main assets are Gawker stock holdings and his New York City apartment, which he recently listed for sale...

Jury Awards Wrestler Hulk Hogan $115,000,000 Over Sex Tape Leaked Online By Gawker Website


Hulk Hogan

This is a follow up to the March 8, 2016 Judiciary Report article "Hulk Hogan Takes The Stand In $100,000,000 Leaked Sextape Lawsuit Against Gawker Website" where the site slammed the behavior of the website for engaging in unlawful behavior that perversely invaded Hogan's privacy in a very sick way.

A week and a half later, on Friday, March 18, 2016, a jury awarded wrestler Hulk Hogan $115,000,000 in damages against website Gawker and its founder, Nick Denton, for leaking to the internet, the illegally made, secret sex tape between the star and the wife of his former best friend. This figure is $15,000,000 more than Hogan requested in the civil lawsuit, but fair under the circumstances, as this case is sick and a gross invasion of privacy. Gawker intends to file an appeal. However, Gawker and company should be made to financially pay for their conduct. A prison sentence would have been appropriate as well in criminal court.


Bubba The Love Sponge Clem and wife Heather

Gawker was arrogant to publish the secretly made sex tape. Hogan and his sex partner, Heather, maintain they did not know they were being filmed by the latter’s husband, Bubba The Love Sponge Clem, who had secretly set up a camera in the closet, to film his wife's activities in their open marriage. The tape was then offered to Gawker, who illegally published it online and made $15,000,000 in advertising from the misconduct. Gawker knew they did not have Hogan or Heather's written permission to do so. They are playing dumb and twisting the law to suit their vile narrative in violating others.

Society is going in a sick direction when third parties are of the deranged and misguided belief, they have the right to secretly watch and or film others in situations privacy is to be expected. As stated in the column previously, psychologists classify voyeurism as a mental disorder. It is not something to be championed or praised. It is mental illness to secretly watch people in their homes, hotel rooms, business or toilets in public establishments, without their consent. 


Nick Denton and his boyfriend/civil partner

Recently, sportscaster, Erin Andrews was awarded $55,000,000 due to a stalker secretly filming her naked in her hotel room and uploading the mobile phone video to the internet. Rapper 50 Cent was slapped with a $5,000,000 court judgment for arrogantly uploading a video of Lastonia Leviston, the ex-girlfriend of rival rapper, Rick Ross, to his website, without her consent. Leviston is the mother of Ross' minor child. She became suicidal after 50 Cent posted the tape to the world without her consent and mocked her to boot. It was a nasty, traumatizing event in her life. 

The aforementioned individuals that illegally recorded and or published secret sex tapes should be in prison for these sick, perverted offenses and hit with massive criminal fines. What people do in their own bedrooms, hotels, private offices and public toilets is their own business. It is nasty and sick for third parties to think they should be secretly watching. You are sex offenders and sexual predators dragging society right into the gutter. People have a right to privacy. Stop violating it.

Hulk Hogan Takes The Stand In $100,000,000 Leaked Sextape Lawsuit Against Gawker Website



Hulk Hogan

WWE and WWF wrestler, Hulk Hogan, real name Terry Bollea, took the stand today in his $100,000,000 lawsuit against the website Gawker, owned by Nick Denton. Hogan was conducting an extramarital affair with the wife of his then best friend, radio host, Bubba The Love Sponge Clem, with his knowledge and permission, in what is an unwise and unethical open marriage. Hogan states he was unaware Bubba The Love Sponge Clem was using a hidden camera to make a sex tape of Hogan and his wife. Bubba The Love Sponge Clem then leaked the video to Gawker.

Hogan stated in court, "I was embarrassed by what it did to me as a person, but it was even embarrassing as a character. Hulk Hogan was embarrassed." Denton argued his parents saw during the Holocaust "First hand what happens when free speech is suppressed." Firstly, this is exactly why Denton should have more respect for the human rights of others and not criminally aide in the violation of their privacy. The Jews were treated very badly, denied all privacy and human rights in general. Secondly, don't invoke the horrible Holocaust, something so serious that is a terrible human atrocity where people were murdered, as a legal defense for violating the rights of others. It is insulting. Thirdly, leaked a secretly made sex tape has nothing to do with free speech. You criminally violated Hogan's human rights.

So, Denton, following your illogical, defective defense, another blogger would have the right to secretly install a hidden camera in your bedroom and bathroom, then unbeknownst to you record you in states of undress and engaging in sexual activity, then publish it to their blog? You would sue them into poverty if you were disgustingly violated in that manner, so stop pretending.

As a writer and blogger, who has respect for the law and people's rights, I am of the belief, Gawker had absolutely no right to post the secretly made sex tape of Hogan. What Gawker did was unkind, cruel and criminal. There is a depravity that exists today among some in society, emanating from Hollywood, where select people think they have the right to secretly spy on others in their homes and hotel rooms. It is perverted, sick and demonic. It is a sign of serious mental illness that is a threat to society.

They keep pushing the envelope with this vile behavior, moving the goalpost each time in trying to get the public to accept the unacceptable as normal behavior and next thing you know, they will are going to try to excuse secretly spying on underage children in their homes and bathrooms in states of undress. Some are already engaging in this abominable conduct and deserve to be locked up for a long stretch of time over it, as they are a danger to society. Some are already under indictment and in prison for the aforementioned behavior. 

Congress has not done enough to protect the public from mentally deranged voyeurs. Psychiatry lists voyeurism as a mental disorder. It is nasty. They are also sexual predators. It is not something to be celebrated or encouraged. Many U.S. states have criminal laws against it, but serious, sweeping federal legislation that would cover the entire country needs to be passed to protect the public.
