wiffleball 4,797 Posted November 8, 2007 Remember the nigga that Dog was so afraid of suing him? She's suing him. Shocka!! The woman whose relationship with Duane "Dog" Chapman's son Tucker pushed him to bark out his now-infamous N-word-laced rant against her is planning to growl back with a lawsuit of her own, according to the National Enquirer. Monique Shinnery, against whom Dog used the racial epithet several times during his taped tirade, tells the tab that she's going to sue for slander. "I want justice," says Monique. "He has slandered me, stated that I have bad character and repeatedly lied about me on national television." So, here's my question: Assuming he said nothing derogatory on his show, but this is just about 'the tape': If a Dad's talking shiit about his son's gf in a private call, that's not "slander" is it? From what I briefly read, if he shouted it in the middle of a shopping mall, maybe that's slander. But if you make a private statement to a family member - and later on that statement was made public - Without your knowledge, will or consent - that's not actionable, is it?

spottedowl 1 Posted November 8, 2007 Shouldn't she be suing Dogs son for selling the tape to the tabloid? Looks like Dog was right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingofBeer 0 Posted November 8, 2007 I don't recall him saying anythign untruthful in the recording. What would the slander be? And Dog didn't make it public, the son did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
