    Default A Man Whose Parents Threw Out His Porn Collection Wins Lawsuit Against Them haha

    https://www.huffpost.com/entry/david...b650b99adad633

    Gosh it would take a lot of balls to show up in court discussing porn videos. His attorney prolly laughed over this case after his client left his office. He won with as much as $75,000. He added, "This was a collection of often irreplaceable items and property."

    I would've sent my attorney down to deal with this without my presence on this one hahaha.

    This reads like a The Onion article.

    gross. From what his father says in the email they quoted this scumbag had illegal materials with animals and children.

    He is a waste, ugh. Probably sponged off his parents too and didn't even pay rent.

    Too bad the judge didn't tip off the FBI, strange he isn't being investigated.

    The article says the sheriff’s department reviewed the materials and found no evidence of child pornography.

    Property is property. If it is not yours leave it alone.

    Yeah, unless you are in your 40s and want to keep your free place to live. 75,000 isn't enough to live on forever or buy a house so I wonder what his plan is now that he has humiliated the family.

    He lives in Michigan so it appears a doable settlement amount will pay for a downpayment. I'm no realtor.. He needs to figure out how he's gonna live now with a pissed off family lol.

    What would a settlement be? He claims the property was worth $25,000 and he wants treble damages. How much might the judgment be and what would the parties settle for after judgment?

    How much does a house cost?

    Suing your parents though?

    I’m sorry but wtf kind of parents accept this bullshit judgement.

    I wouldn’t give a damn. If I didn’t want porn in MY house I’d get rid of it too.

    I’d counter-sue that whiny little bitch for 100k (for the expenses it took to raise his entitled ass) + rent (the cost of letting him stay in my home after age 18 ) + attorney fees

    In addition I’d file an appeal.

    And if all else fails he’d get his ass kicked old fashioned style.

    I’d kick my kids ass if they had the audacity to file a legal suit against me. And yes it would be worth the charge.

    You can sue anyone any time for any reason. But you won't win unless you have a cause of action, and facts. If you don't you and/or your lawyer may be sanctioned.

    Could this be a scam on the parents insurance company?

    The article says he moved out, to Indiana, and that's when he discovered his porn was missing.

    Which raises the question of whether he overlooked it when moving, or whether it was taken while he lived at the residence.

    Interestingly, the seminal case applying the exclusionary rule to state proceedings, Mapp v. Ohio, involved pornography.

    And that's what raises the question.

    How do you establish the value of antique pornography. Are there people who appraise it?

    I believe they said 75K because treble damages is 3x the worth. He's gonna have to pay for attorney fees anyways. Who knows what's included in the settlement? Some ask for attorney fees as well.

    All over some porno videos. I get it but yikes! I would bow out of this one embarrassed.

    Thats like suing over a dildo collection being stolen. Who would show up in a normal court with their head held high? You aren't the only one there. Plenty of people listening Hehe

    Houses are cheap in Michigan for a basic one.

    Old porno videos was part of the case which is why he went to court. He had old film of it thrown out. I dunno sex is sex no matter the timeframe. Most don't care how someone had sex in the olden days but this guy does. Isn't there a sex museum in USA? Prolly why he's upset trying to retain history.

    There is no settlement. It appears to be something like an interlocutory summary judgment, with a hearing later on the value of the property. How will that be determined? Is there a market for used/antique pornography?

    If the porn was so important

    Why his dumb ass leave it there? Why not keep it in a safe deposit box or something?

    But it wasn't about "I don't want this in my house," it was "I want to impose my morality and ethics onto you," which is only a step away from "Nobody should have things I disagree with." As the father explained:

    “That you would buy and watch films depicting such violence is beyond the pale,” Werking’s father wrote. “I have no words to express the depth of my shock and disappointment. Believe it or not, one reason for why I destroyed your porn was for your own mental and emotional health. I would have done the same if I had found a kilo of crack cocaine.”
