Jenny Randles being sued
Sued
'Stanton Friedman, well-known UFO researcher and nuclear physicist, and Harry Harris, a solicitor and UFO enthusiast, filed a defamation lawsuit against Jenny Randles, then Director of Information for the British UFO Research Association (BUFORA).
The lawsuit also named BUFORA and the Manchester Evening News as co-defendants in the legal action. This stemmed
from an article that appeared in the Manchester Evening News on Saturday, October 28, 1989.
Those who still debate whether or not legal action was justified in this case often cite the issue as one of freedom of expression vs. censorship and intimidation. Friedman holds that the case was about defamation and libel.
I have online the actual newspaper articles, the letter from Randles to the MEN, the published apology, etc.'
The link to the articles doesn't work though.
I love Randles' spontaneous combustion book and was both spooked and strangely satisfied to find it also in the BF's collection when we met!
