- Larry Klayman: Lawyer and founder of Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch, representing Corsi in this defamation lawsuit.
- The Allegations:
- Stone allegedly defamed Corsi and Klayman by making public statements accusing them of being liars, frauds, and incompetent, which they argue harmed their reputations.
- Opening Statements and Ground Rules:
- The deposition begins with attorneys from both sides setting the tone, reviewing procedural rules, and ensuring that Stone understands the gravity of providing truthful testimony under oath.
- Stone’s Defenses and Responses:
- Denial of Malice: Stone argues that his statements were either opinions protected under the First Amendment or factual assertions he believed to be true at the time.
- Political Context: Stone often frames his comments about Corsi and Klayman in the broader context of political disagreements, attempting to downplay their defamatory nature.
- Questions Regarding Statements:
- The plaintiffs' attorney questions Stone about specific remarks he made about Corsi and Klayman in media appearances, social media posts, and interviews.
- Stone is pressed to clarify whether he had evidence supporting his claims or if they were purely opinion-based.
- Corsi’s Role in the Mueller Investigation:
- Stone discusses his knowledge of Jerome Corsi’s alleged involvement in WikiLeaks-related matters during the 2016 election.
- He is asked whether his statements about Corsi being unreliable or dishonest were influenced by their falling out during the Mueller investigation.
- Klayman’s Reputation as a Lawyer:
- The deposition includes pointed questions about Larry Klayman’s professional conduct and whether Stone’s remarks were intentionally aimed at discrediting him as an attorney.
- Tone and Tactics:
- As expected from Roger Stone, his responses are combative and often laced with sarcasm, making for a contentious and dramatic deposition.
- The deposition serves as a key part of the discovery process, allowing Corsi and Klayman to establish whether Stone’s statements meet the legal standard for defamation, including proving malice and harm.
- Stone’s characteristic defiance and sharp tongue make the deposition noteworthy, as he often uses such platforms to air grievances and promote his narrative.
