Boston Marathon victim sues Glenn Beck for defamation
BOSTON (AP) - A Saudi Arabian man injured in the Boston Marathon bombings has filed a defamation lawsuit against Glenn Beck, accusing the conservative commentator of calling him "the money man" behind the attack.
Abdulrahman Alharbi, 20, said in the lawsuit filed Friday in U.S. District Court in Boston that his reputation was "substantially and severely damaged" as a result of Beck's statements on the air linking him to the bombings.
The lawsuit, which also names the broadcast companies connected to Beck's show, seeks a jury trial and unspecified damages.

This is the same "person-of-interest" flagged on a terror watch list , scheduled for deportation, with a history of visits to the White House. photos of the First Lady visiting him in the hospital surfaced to much speculation as well.
This kid doesn't quite understand the American legal process. His law fare jihad will backfire during the discovery process.
Yes, exactly.
The same guy who, as I recall, is from a wealthy family in Saudi Arabia, yet was living in a terrible apartment building people with whores and drug addicts, and had a bedroom with a mattress on a floor and nothing on the walls.
I wonder if the defense will call Mrs. BHO to testify about her visit.
Does MA have that clause which compels the bringers of frivolous lawsuits to pay all court costs?
If they do and he does this anyway...well this is our society.. and this is how we have built it.
I have a feeling a jury might be a BAD idea for him, but HE doesn't get to choose. Beck does.
Epa,
This guy is ESSENTIALLY a Saud.
Money will lilely be no object to his family and their friends who might support them.
Check out my words. I can dance like freaiking Bill Robinson when I want to.
