Mark Robinson, attorneys call CNN report a 'high-tech lynching'
Показать описание
North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson and the law firm he hired provided an update Tuesday about their "investigation" into a CNN report about the lieutenant governor, saying they have filed a defamation complaint in court as a result.
It comes after CNN claimed Robinson had posted several sexually graphic and racist comments to a pornographic website.
Attorney Jesse Binnall, with the Binnall Law Group, said his team includes a number of attorneys and the investigation was led by a former FBI special agent. He said they knocked on doors, focused on "following the facts." Robinson and Binnall called the report a "high-tech lynching" intended to interfere in the gubernatorial election.
The report sparked pressure for Robinson, the Republican candidate for governor, to withdraw from the race but he refused to do so. The deadline for candidates to withdraw has now passed.
