So. Our favourite racist, sexist, transphobic attorney and sometime writer, Mr Lukas David Jackson of "sheetheads" infamy, has been racing around trying to spread as much slime as he can in the last month or so, first as [livejournal.com profile] darkerblogistan as his alter ego, [livejournal.com profile] igorsanchez. [livejournal.com profile] kynn has the legwork and more links: for a rehash, go here.

After Mr Jackson posted what he thought was [livejournal.com profile] kynn's contact information and encouraged people to call the number, which actually belongs to [livejournal.com profile] kynn's ex-wife, I politely contacted his law partners at Choe, Jackson, and Weitz, on the assumption that they might not know that he was tarnishing their reputation with his actions and might want to rein him in.

Jackson, being the classy gentleman we've come to expect him to be, has responded by posting the email with my contact info over at Asimov's.

You would think someone who actually passed the bar exam would know better. You would think someone whose firm handles discrimination and sexual harassment cases would know better. You would think someone who, when his own full name with its distinctive spelling of the first name is searched for, has a full address returned in the very few results would know better.

Maybe becoming a lawyer is easier than I thought it was, or maybe he just paid off one of those exploited Korean "doumas" to do all his work for him.

ETA: The message with my contact info has disappeared. Luckily, I have a screenshot.

Wonder if he tried to make himself look nice and spotless up until he passed the bar/character tests or something.

I went to school with someone last year who's doing the same sort of thing now; he was an explicit, open "kill the mentally ill and deny their kids the franchise" self-described fascist in the history department, but seems to be trying to look squeaky clean in law school.

Yeah. Cal suggested I tip off the school about that, mainly in jest, but I've been tempted, especially since he started pulling rank about how being a law student makes him the ubermensch. ;)

I saw the letter you wrote, it was wonderful!

Wonder if a physical letter addressed to one of the other partners would do the trick. Intercepting firm email is one thing, but opening someone else's letters would be a little more difficult for a lawyer to defend.

Especially if you required a signature and stamped it "PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL."

I hadn't even thought that he might be intercepting them. Good point.

Have you contacted anyone over at the Asimov boards about getting your information taken down?

Luke has now posted on Blogger:

My partner, civil rights attorney Andrew Weitz, has instructed me to direct all queries and complaints concerning this matter over to his blog:

http://madashell-thetruth.blogspot.com/

That blog has a personal e-mail for Andrew Weitz. If it really is his e-mail you could try contacting him, he is one of his partners.

*blinks*

I wonder if e-mail from their website goes to a single person. Named Lukas Jackson. Have you considered sending a paper letter? Registered mail?

these guys are suggesting the CA Bar Association, but I'm going to wait on that for a few days.
