A man sued at least 10 women over Facebook posts on an FB group called "Are We Dating the Same Guy." The Californian resident was annoyed after discovering that the ladies he dated found each other online and started talking about him.
The women allegedly accused him of things he didn't do, including a murder case of his ex-wife, claiming that he was suspected of murder.
Man Sues Women Over Negative Facebook Posts
According to LAW & CRIME, Stewart Lucas Murrey sued the women in Los Angeles civil court. He claims that these individuals connected in a Facebook group called "Are We Dating the Same Guy, Los Angeles."
The plaintiff added that the negative statements they made against him via the FB group were all false. He also denied having a relationship with any of them, saying that he has never been married and that a girlfriend of his passed away from cancer.
"Defendants clearly conspired to harm plaintiff," stated Stewart's complaint. Now, two of the 10 women decided to respond to Stewart's lawsuit.
NEWSNATION reported that Vanessa Valdes and Olivia Burger were among the defendants in Stewart's lawsuit. Burder said that in her one and only date with Murrey in 2021, they were having a healthy debate, but it wasn't a friendly conversation.
She added that during their conversation, the man was shoving his opinions. Meanwhile, Valdes also shared her story, saying that Murrey commented on a photo of hers and asked her to hang out.
However, the woman claims that the man immediately followed a very unusual response, asking how she'll mess something up and why there's a guy in her picture.

"Absolutely, Facebook posts could rise to the level of defamation," said Atty. Megan Whiteside.
"I'm just not convinced, based on what we know ... that this will be successful," she added.
