Refunded sympathy: Goofiani gets sued for costing a man his job

 11 months ago, on a campaign stop on behalf of his son, Andrew, Rudy Goofiani was at a Staten Island Shop-Rite, where a store employee, Daniel Gill, patted him on the back, while addressing him as a scumbag. Goofiani falsely claimed he'd been assaulted, largely to get sympathy points from his base. Gill lost his job, and spent 24 hours in jail before the charges were dropped.

Two days after being sued by a former assistant who says he engaged in racist and sexist misbehavior, Goofiani is being sued by Gill. 

Civil rights attorney Ron Kuby, who, like Goofiani, has been on the radio in NYC (a former on-air partner of Curtis Sliwa), is representing Gill, alleging false arrest. Not only is Goofiani being sued, but so are a few others. Brian Tyler Cohen explains, and also breaks down Goofiani's other legal troubles.

One week after Donald Trump was held liable for sexually assaulting E. Jean Carroll, a verdict Trump has since ignored as he continues to defame Carroll, fellow geriatric Goofiani is on the hot seat. Between Gill & Noelle Dunphy, the former assistant, the only thing Goofiani can hope for after losing both suits, is that he handles things with something Trump lacks. Dignity. I wouldn't hold my breath on it, though.
