Terri Patraw: Lies Planted In The Media

I ran across this quote in another article on a high profile lawsuit in Reno.  I could not have said it better myself.


"I would be very careful because something said in a (court) filing is not necessarily true," she cautioned.  "I would suggest you check your facts."


The one thing I have learned in the past year is that when you are suing UNR the court docket is filled with lies, false evidence, phony documents, false affidavits, and other judicial misconduct.    

I am the victim of a conspiracy to defame me in the media by the defense team and their friendly local reporter.  

The defense lawyers felt secure making false and defamatory statements under the protection of judicial pleading/hearings. By law, you generally cannot be held liable for what you say in court filings and in the court room. 

The defense lawyers knew this so they had a news reporter at my hearings to publish lies in the press. 

The reporter knew what she was printing was false:  

    1) She was repeatedly told prior to publication that the University's statements were lies and/or  
        manufactured evidence; 

    2) She was in the court room to see the evidence from my side that exposed the lies.  She rarely 
        printed any statements from my side that refuted their lies.

The most embarrassing part of this media manipulation was watching this reporter huddle with the defense lawyers giggling and discussing her articles.  I am not making this stuff up.

I was also told first hand from the editor at the Reno Gazette Journal that University officials threaten and intimidate them if they publish negative things about the University.  

On one occasion two UNR defense lawyers and UNR spokesperson Jane Tors scheduled a meeting with the RGJ editor in an effort to suppress negative coverage of them.  By the way, taxpayers paid for that meeting in violation of a state contract.

Athletic Director Cary Groth called the RGJ on multiple occasions regarding my case in an attempt to censor what was printed. 

External threats are likely why the Reno Gazette Journal has not printed that my whistleblower hearing was remanded after evidence of perjury, falsification of evidence, false affidavits, and concealment of documents by the UNR defendants; the guilty defendants include Athletic Director Cary Groth and UNR General Counsel Mary Dugan.  By the way, taxpayers paid for this misconduct in violation of a state contract too.

You have to wonder what kind of childhood these people must have had to engage in such corrupt and evil practices to conspire to destroy other peoples lives. 

As someone said to me: When one cannot find success on their own merits and talent they resort to destroying others who can.

Keep the faith . . . justice will prevail . . .
