HSK Beats TMZ to a case almost entirely about them
Attorney Ronald Richards once again continues to protect Freedom of Speech.
Today HSK has exclusively obtained and published court documents from the recent SLAPP MOTION hearing in the Jayde Nicole vs. Joe Francis cross-complaint.
Joe Francis of Girls Gone Wild lost his cross-complaint against Jayde Nicole today. Judge Mark V. Mooney of the Los Angeles Superior Court dismissed his complaint against Jayde Nicole for libel, slander, and false light. The Court found that Joe Francis was a public figure and that Ms. Nicole’s comments to the media were protected speech relating to the topic of Mr. Francis objectifying and exploiting young women.
Since Mr. Francis failed to meet his burden of proof that the statements were made with actual malice, the Court dismissed the case finding no actual malice had been proven by Mr. Francis. (more…)
Playboy playmate attempting to get defamation allegations thrown out
Dueling litigation between Joe Francis and a Playboy model could be pared if the woman’s lawyers are successful in persuading a judge to throw out the “Girls Gone Wild” founder’s defamation allegations against her on Thursday.
Jayde Nicole, the 2008 Playmate of the Year, sued Francis on Sept. 24 for assault and battery in connection with a scuffle that she, her boyfriend Brody Jenner and Francis got into Aug. 28 at Los Angeles nightclub Guys and Dolls.
The 23-year-old centerfold alleges that Francis caused her multiple injuries, including a “black eye, swollen face, bruised ribs, sore and bruised abdomen region, bruised arms and legs, ripped-out hair and utter emotional distress and humiliation.”
Francis filed a countersuit against Nicole and Jenner on Oct. 23, alleging battery, assault, negligence, slander, libel and invasion of privacy.
The countersuit maintains Nicole slandered Francis when she spoke on video after the incident to a member of a celebrity Web site and said the videomaker “… grabbed my hair and he punched me in the face … he pushed me to the ground … he kicked me in my stomach and my chest … and [her neck].” (more…)

Brad Ferro, the Queens High School gym teacher should be LOCKED UP! This guy is a sociopath with complete disregard to women. HSK is more offended by this guy than by MTV who is shilling this extremely violent clip as a marketing attempt to bring in more eyes.
Our opinion of Jersey Shore is that the joke is on the cast. They are clearly not representative of Italian’s. If they were dropped off in Rome they would be like fish out of water. They are tacky new yorkers lacking any type of class. They have as much in common with Guido Leone as my dog Bella.
