A U.S. Marine veteran and immigration lawyer has sued soon-to-be-disbarred attorney and right-wing operative Jack Burkman — as well as his conspiracy theorist and fellow huckster Jacob Wohl — in a lawsuit alleging the duo destroyed his life after they catfished him and falsely accused the 36-year-old of having sex with an underage teen he met on Tinder.

The new lawsuit reviewed Tuesday by Law&Crime hammers Burkman and Wohl with a series of allegations that paint a horrific picture of what the veteran and Maryland resident says he went through just so Burkman and Wohl could keep reaping in cash from their donors.

As the lawsuit notes, the history of fraud trailing Burkman and Wohl is extensive. Both of them pleaded guilty to a single felony count of fraud for targeting tens of thousands of Black voters using threatening robocalls meant to keep them away from the polls. And as the plaintiff notes, Wohl’s aim then and now continues to be to influence “mainstream media” by any means necessary.

Even if it means, the veteran outlined alleged while quoting Wohl himself, “‘making s— up and misdirecting with details aimed to confuse, leading to more inquiry.””
