The legal battle against my internet accusers came to trial in 2022 when the high court in Carcassonne, France, my adopted homeland, found I had no case to answer to. The vindictive charges laid against me were found to be without evidence or merit, and criminal charges of libel, harassment, loss of income and degradation of working conditions were subsequently upheld against Tracy Robertson (aka ‘Scarlett Amaris’) and Tonelise Rugaas (aka ‘Shelly Gonzalez’).
Two feature projects and a popular television series were cancelled because of their actions, resulting in the loss of hundreds of jobs and millions of dollars in potential revenue. My accusers are California residents and thus are protected by the statute of limitations on internet libel, making it all but impossible to pursue them or the companies that initially supported them through US courts.
