On information and belief, the John Does 1 to 100 are users and visitors of Abovethelaw.com. . FACTS 10. On May 6, 2010, Plaintiff, Meanith Huon, was acquitted of sexual assault charges in Madison County, Illinois, after the jury deliberated for 2 hours. 11. On May 6, 2010, after Mr. Huon was acquitted, Defendant Elie Mystal, posted the following on Abovethelaw.com: Rape Potpourri We’ve got a couple of rape stories . . . Our next story from the files of the wanton and depraved is a little more in our wheelhouse. A St. Louis-area lawyer came up with an excellent little game to meet women. Meanith Huon allegedly listed Craigslist ads where he claimed to be a talent scout for models. ... But Huon’s potentially harmless lies allegedly turned dastardly, pretty quickly. 2 Case: 1:11-cv-03054 Document #: 1 Filed: 05/06/11 Page 3 of 9 PageID #:3 The victim said she responded to a Craigslist ad posted by Huon in late June, seeking promotional models , sending ger resume, her phone number, and two pictures of herself . . . And this people, is why God invented Google. Had the victim Google Huon, she would have found stories like this from the Madison County Record: A Chicago attorney who was posing as a supervisor for a company that sets up promotions for alcohol sales at area bars was charged in Madison County July 2, with two counts of criminal sexual assault, two counts of criminal sexual abuse and one count of unlawful restraint . . . Meanith Huon, 38, of 3038 S Canal St. in Chicago, was arrested by the Chicago Police Department on July 1, and was transferred to Madison County the next day. Or she might have come across this link from, at Lawyer Gossip: Lawyer, Meanith Huon, 39, who was originally charged with criminal sexual assault, sexual abuse and unlawful restraint is now facing charges of harassment and cyber stalking! Of course, women shouldn’t have to assume that every guy they meet is a potential rapist. But apparently there are a lot of depraved dude walking around that are potential rapist. In any event: Huon and the woman went to a couple of bars near Busch Stadium, then to a Laclede’s Landing bar before Huon asked the victim if she wanted to go to Pop’s in Sauget to meet the other models. The woman agreed, but told Huon she didn’t have enough gas in her car, so she went with him, she said. 3 Case: 1:11-cv-03054 Document #: 1 Filed: 05/06/11 Page 4 of 9 PageID #:4 This is gonna end badly. As Huon’s Honda Civic crossed the poplar Bridge, the victim said Huon drove past the Sauget exit and continued north on Interstate 55. As the car was moving, Huon fondled the woman, then forced her to perform oral sex on him, the victim, said. Oh, come on. If somebody was driving and tried to “force” me to perform oral sex on them, I’d just get out of the stupid car. Which is to say, I’d do exactly what the victim did in this case. ... Damn. If you can’t get a woman to consensually stay in a moving vehicle, can you really get her to consensually agree to sex (insofar as lying to her about your job and your intentions to get her into the car counts as consensual in the first place)? Obviously, Huon sees things differently. ... So we’re not denying that she hurled herself out of a moving vehicle, we’re contending she jumped out of the car to make it look like she was raped? Right, sure. That sounds like the definition of incredible. It seems to me that there is entirely too much (alleged) raping going on in this country. If this keeps up, men and women are going to have to start carrying around sexual consent forms on their persons. . . . A copy of the entire article is attached as Exhibit A and incorporated into this complaint. 12. The aforesaid statement is false. Defendants omit that the same complainant is involved in all 3 articles. Had Defendants read the original source of the news, Defendants 4 Case: 1:11-cv-03054 Document #: 1 Filed: 05/06/11 Page 5 of 9 PageID #:5 would have realized that the Madison County Record and Lawyer Gossip were all discussing the same woman. 13.
