Every few months, another viral outrage story explodes across social media, and the script is almost always the same.A shocking claim, a “racist” angle, followed by a flood of headlines, a GoFundMe that fills up overnight, and before anyone has time to sort out what actually happened, the accused is already branded for life.
The facts usually catch up later, and we discover the whole thing was a hoax. But the damage to the victim is already done.

Best part is the lawyer has to pony up.

This is the result of us becoming a grievance society. Something happens to me I don't like. I assign it to the fact that I belong to some "protected" class. The protection can extend to being a part of a minority group in the situation. The cause of what happened is now assigned as because of my being part of the the special class. This may be true or it may not but you should have to prove it was the motivation for what happened. Often that is not the case but many observers skip over the last requirement, that group membership was the cause. That's not fair and it's not healthy. When discrimination is assumed instead of proven, it weakens the whole structure that protects against real discrimination.

Being awarded millions and COLLECTING millions are two different things.
And the demographics do not seem to be much in the kid's favor... sorry to say.

I missed the part where the lawyer has to pay up. Without that, where will the award come from? The only benefit for Asher is likely to be his reputation. His bank account seems poised to get only fumes.

Good. The only way to stop this nonsense is to fight back and hit them in their wallets.
Put a lien on her assets and take them one at a time. She comes into some money, get that as well.

Somewhat off topic, but here during Mardi Gras in New Orleans, float riders hang trinkets, stuffed animals, black and white Barbie dolls, etc with beads around them to attach to the parade float for easy access to toss to parade goers. A black mother complained because her daughter caught a black doll that had been hung with beads around her neck, which made the news continuously here. Community leaders fell all over themselves saying ‘Oh the horror’ and the kid and her mother received all sorts of special treatment after that. A black leader even had the nerve to say it was ok for white Barbie dolls to be hung with beads, but not black ones. The mother would probably have complained had her daughter not been singled out to catch such a trinket. This is so absurd.

FTA: Remember when Summer Smith alleged in 2021 that her son was “tortured” by white middle schoolers who shot him with a BB gun and made him drink urine? Well, a Judge just ruled that the entire thing was a HOAX. The media and leftist organizations slandered young boys for this FAKE “racially-motivated hate crime.” Summers must now pay one of the boys $3.2 MILLION in damages for LYING about him.
Where's the $3.2 million going to come from? Not the defendant.

9,
It never gets paid. The world is full of people with cash judgments that will never ever happen.
And that is why people with rather high net worth should cover their butts with umbrella policies and high liability on their various insurances. When someone CAN pay... that is blood in the water.

The aggrieved should have simply demanded a public apology. Lay juries have no idea of the value of the dollar and frequently give out OPM (other people's money) without realizing that it really comes out of their own pockets - if at all as others have pointed out.

As Mark Twain said, "A Lie travels around the World while the Truth is putting on it's Shoes."
I have read several stories on this.
My understanding is that it was a bunch of young teen boys, 8th - to-10th grade or so. It was cold weather, and everyone was wearing a heavy coat. They went hunting for something -I forget what- with BB guns. As the did not see any of what they were hunting, they got bored and they ALL took turns shooting each other with the BB guns. Everyone shot the BB guns, everyone was a target. No-one was hurt. Later, some -I do not know the numbers- peed in a cup and offered it to some of the other boys to see if they could get them to drink it. Some smelled it, no-one actually drank it. Several of the boys, not just the black kid.
The mom of the one black kid heard about it and went nuts, hired a lawyer, made a big fuss, called the other boys -particularly the white kid in this story- a RACIST BULLY, sued him, got the Media and social media involved, the whole works.
The white kid sued the mom and her lawyer for emotional distress etc., and the jury sided with the white kid.
The MOM gets to pay 1.5 Million$, AND
The LAWYER also gets to pay 1.5 Million$.
That's my recollection from reading the previous stories on this.
I hope that after having to make this payout, the lawyer's insurance company will 'put out the word' and put the damper on some of this legal nonsense.
