Dog To Be Sued!
Filed under: Legal Matters > Dog The Bounty Hunter
Wednesday night, racist Dog The Bounty Hunter went on Larry King Live to continue his cold and calculated apology tour.
Now, the victim of his racist rant caught on tape, Monique Shinnery, who is dating his son, is going to sue Dog for slandering her (among other things), the National Enquirer is reporting.
"She’s had enough," says the mag. "He attacked her character and as she points out (and he now admits) he’s never met her or spoken to her. He has accused her of things that never happened and caused her a lot of pain."
Hmmmm. Interesting.
Can you sue someone for slandering them in private????

looks like the shit is hitting tha fan!
probably that basketball player from the Rutgers women's basketball team
Juicy
oh wait….what dog?!?! LOL
GOOD HIS ASS DESERVES IT!
He is so ugly and evil on top of that, sick sick sick… I hope they put this piece of shit away for a long time
Have you ever noticed on this Bounty Hunter's show that they only go after ethnic criminals….I have never seen a white criminal chased by Dog…
Apparently people aren't allowed to have their own opinion in what think think is a private conversation anymore. Fuckin retarted.
DUH! I knew that was coming!!
don't believe the hype
On what grounds could he be sued? Defamation? What?
I am so sick of these frivolous law suits I could puke!
His hair is really offensive though.
racist.
2nd! haha
Is he on Larry King tonight crying about his life?
i love you perez
Leave him alone, i watch Larry King live last night and you can easily see he feel sorrrry!!!
wtf what did he do now?? 2nd
second!
Jeez
oooooooo
FIRST
dammmnnn….his son is in trouble now!!!
I always thought he was a slime ball!
"Dirty lawyers…now I'm not calling them lawyers because they are legal…but that's just how we talk…never, never. NEVER!"
D'oh!
i would totally fuck these guys !!! ooh yeah! oooooh !!
THe GUY TY loves the dog. He can bend me over and call me all sorts of names. The GUY TY loves long hair to pull on!
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Dog…whatcha going do when
they cum for U/?????
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Our society as a whole is utterly disgusting. You all want forgiveness and mercy yet you can't dish it out yourselves. The guy made a mistake and he is clearly sincere yet people wanna beat him when he's down. We should all be very lucky that we dont have our personal conversations recorded..otherwise we'd all be screwed. Dog made a mistake but his son's actions are far more sick that what Dog's was.
Finally!!!
Racist pig…
And he might have been using his freedom of speech, but god, people like him should at least think a bit…
No. He cannot be sued for something said in private. She cannot show that he publicly spread false information as it was a private conversation.
Re: bommie – "Chewbacca" that's freaking awesome!
What a dick.
let me go out on a limb here and say enough is enough. this was he private life that got spilled into the mainstream. imus said his racist thing on the job. I am not a Dog fan, but after hearing the tapes and watching CNN last night, in all honesty, isn't that bad compared to what Bill O Rielly and Pat Robertson are paid to say on a daily basis. In context, it really wasn't racist (that being said, I did major in race and ethnic relations in college, so I'm usually the first to jump on stuff like this).
hang on a sec….HE didn't know he was being taped - it wasn't a friggin' press conference…the idiot son and dumb-ass girlfriend were the ones that made the tape public…..will they be suing themselves?
Maybe she should sue her BOYFRIEND who made $$$ off of their private phone conversation! It's his fault that she is being "slandered."
She seems like she's as money hungry as her bf, what a perfect match.
Neither of them deserve a dime.
I'm sure that none of us would like it if our phone conversations were recorded and broadcasted to the world.
it was a PRIVATE convo! end of story.. shes a money hungry bitch!
this IS publicity for dog though, and bad publicity is good publicity!!!! love ya beth and dog…
God, someone needs to go beat the black out of that woman.. stupid Nig
Hell no. Anything we say or write is protected by the United States Constitution's First Amendment.
I've seen a few white crimnals on DTBH. Remember that crazy bald dude with all the tats?
I am so going to fuck these two. Damn they are so cute. Since my
penis is only pencil thin..I'll bet he let's me stick it up his twat.
support dog!!!!
sometimes i think he's still on the stuff! if ya know what i mean!
I Love You Dog! We Forgive You! Be Strong!
Welcome to America, where everyone is sue-happy. It was wrong of him to say it and I don't agree with it..but it's his RIGHT to say it.
Re: crap-tas-tic –
I agree with Crap - tas - tic, number 24
it is a freedom of speech issue.
Dog, can I bring some negro's over with me to put in the mix?
No, she would have to prove that the things he said were harmful to her reputation and standing in the community. In this case, it seems to have harmed HIS reputation and standing in the community. As much of a racist bastard as he may be, she probably won't win this one.
she's just as bad as he is. Money grubber. His son is such a wuss to let this person do this. You know they want to split the money. She should EARN her money and move on.
Of course she wants to sue. This is America and what would America be with a bunch of dumbasses wanting to sue all the damn time. This was a private conversation, and i am sure this girl saw it as money in her eyes.
Fuck that money hungry bitch. She's just looking for a handout. What a fucking cunt.
he needs to go to Rehab..lol NO NO NO..lol
I can't stand him or his wife Beth- those people are now getting humiliated and they deserve it. I disagree with the law suit. I mean it was a private conversation between him and his son. It was not like he said those things in a public forum. Oh did I mention I can not stand Beth. She needs a stylist and she needs to get a breast reduction.
I think people should not watch the channel that his show was on, as a protest. Its wrong that his show was pulled and life ruined for saying BAD words in the privacy of his home. We have all said things that we wouldn't want others to hear especially when angered…..This kind of thing will happen over and over unless the public is less apathetic.
Actually an interesting question. Slander is a lie published to another that damages your reputation. So if Dog made the derogatory comments to his son, but his son did not change his opinion of the women, then no slander. The re-publication by the son selling the statements might actually be the slander here.
His son should be sued, he is the one who made it public. I don't think it is slander when it is a private conversation.
Leland is hot.
Hey small Dog, cum and lick my balls for me why don't you…
who tapes thier phone conversations with thier dad anyways????? She is doing it for the money….
Re: ╔═╛۞Postive.Vibration۞╘═╗ –
bingo bango thoust speaketh the truth.
GOOD GOD LET IT REST.
As long as there are people of different colors there will be racism, it is bred into the human animal
I am grateful to live in a society where we can pretend otherwise - but I'm not so stupid as to think the black community will ever fully embrace me or any other white person as an equal
That man was in prison - big boy, max. security prison, not some county lockup - for a long time. Race lines are clearly drawn in there, he is only human if he hates and fears people that certainly would have killed him if they had half the chance (and vice versa)
im sorry but there is no explaination to what he did…fuck that…you are a piece of shit just like the rest…PIG!!!!
fuck you!!!….and im DOMINICAN!!!
Now it's just gotten ridiculous…I am confused as to how he can be sued for all of this crap??…..If so we should make a class action lawsuit for that hair…..
Of course you can. Slander is anything that one party portrays to another party about someone that isn't true. Public or private.
If you say "I heard that he…" or "I think he…" it's not slander. But if you say, "He did this…" then it is.
Gimme a break, that bitch was probably in on it to sell the tape in the first place.. money hugry bitch.. typical.. sounds like she deserved to be called a you know.. When are people gonna learn to quit using that word… its not cool
Re: hhtehtrhy – dumb
PLEASE CALL ME PEREZ, IT'S NOT EVEN DRY YET
Isn't it funny how taking someone elses money suddenly makes you feel better ?
Her feelings were hurt. Boo hoo. If everyone sued just because their feelings were hurt we would REALLY have a fucked up country. It's almost there !
Hey Monique, get a dam job and stop trying to benefit from a hard working guy who just happened to say a word you did not like in the privacy of his own home ! For Christ sakes ! Must we ALL be monitored in our homes to make sure we don't say a word that might offend someone ? Bullshit. No wonder there is so much hate out there.
And if I were Dog, the first thing I would do would be to write my deadbeat son out of my will FAST. Then he can live happily ever after with Monique.
Geez..I didnt see that coming *sigh*
Whatever!! I still love DOG!!!
but the tape didnt have to be released…..it was never sapposed to be public until her boyfriend released it. So if anything he should be sued. That lawsuit will get thrown out easy.
Sje should sue her boyfriend for selling the tape to The Enquirer.
If those comments were so "Hurtfull" to her, then why did she make the conversation public? You know she had a part in this. She's just proving him right. She really is all those things he said about her.
I used to sniff negor's out as a job. Now, what are you going to do?
No, Dog might be a bigot, but he isn't a slanderer. She has no legal case against him. For one, his hate speech didn't damage her reputation, which is a basic requirement of slander. Actually, if anything maybe he slandered himself, b/c his words have damaged HIS reputation far more than this poor woman's.
More than 80% of the people watching Larry King last night voted that Dog's show shouldn't be off the air. Only losers hate the Dog.
I'm a grown fucking adult. I can say any word I want, I'm not in the 2nd grade, I am an American and freedom of speech is allowed. Dog was not doing anything wrong.
THAT FUCKING BLACK BITCH SHOULD SHUT THE FUCK UP AND GO BACK TO THE COTTONFIELDS IN ALABAMA!!!!
That girl thinks she can sue for defamation. The tape cannot be used as evidence. She doesn't have a leg to stand on.
He has to publicly slander her in writing or in a public statement. Then, she has a defamation or slander suit.
It was a private conversation. It cannot be admissible in a court of law.
It will get dropped. Dog probably has lawyers on retainer. This girl will suffer financially should she hire a lawyer and take him to court.
She is wasting her money.
no you can't…. that is ridiculous!!!
.
I mean what he said was horrendous and she deserves to be upset, but that was a PRIVATE phone conversation… if anybody would be sued here it would be the sun for making that conversation public and embarassing her.
.
If everybody went around suing for things people say about eachother in private, this world would be CHAOS!! First fucking amendment, jeez.
.
What is happening to this country?
He knew he was being an ass. He said so on the tape — that it would ruin his career if people knew how he talked in private. Well, now we know and he was right — it has ruined his reality TV career. I guess he can still be a bounty hunter, though.
Let's let Leland have the family business. He can fire Dog and Beth. Then he can take over the show. He should bounty hunt topless every episode.
Leland is Hot!
Re: Kris10 – you are absolutely right.
no… you can't for slander in private. the whole slander / defamation suit is based on damaging your public image. so if it was in private it would defeat the whole purpose.
Of course he was super sorry on Larry King last night. His career is over. I would be apologizing left and right if I said something like that and it was leaked. I would be crying up a storm trying to get the piblic's sympathy. At the end of the day, he talks like that. Canceling his show won't change that. ore resentful.
Don't be stupid people…..there's a difference between n**ger and nigga. He though he was cool enough to say it???? Black folk don't call each n**ger, they call each other nigga.
DUKE RAPE CASE? WHERE IS JESSE JACSKON'S APOLOGY? and why isn't the bitch in jail?
Dog's conversation was supposed to be between him and his son! Not the entire world. Tucker's an ASS for selling his Dad down the river for some chick anyway. I hope Dog never speaks to him again and his girlfriend breaks up with him. Tucker Sucks
She may have a suit. All you need is for someone to have "published" something defamatory and false about you. Saying something bad about you to another person (even in private) is enough, so she may get some money. I haven't listened to the tape carefully, but if he said something about her chastity (i.e., called her a "whore") she may even have a per se suit, depending on Hawaii state law. This means she is entitled to compensation so long as she can show that the accusation isn't true. I hope she succeeds.
(Note, this does not constitute legal advice)
The asshole is and always has been a racist. You cannot say those words, about all races and not mean them. It is just who he is.
Redneck scumbag.
Jesse Jackson calls New York City HYMIETOWN, no apology
OMG! Who give a shit!! I mean really? His son and that girl are stupid little tards who gives a chit what he called this girl in a private conversation with his son when she wasn't even there?
