One of the goals is to catch Nicholas out in his ever-growing web of lies that he has spun to protect himself from the consequences of abusing his children, pets, and ''wife''. There is also the issue where he has subverted the legal process in an attempt to hide what by any and all considerations was and should continue to be publicly available court records in a court case with a massive public interest that deserves the opportunity to receive the same kind of coverage and scrutiny he applied to the court records and legal battles of other people....I apologise if this seems late, but can I just clarify something, because the whole bodycam discussion is too much to catch up on -
What is the goal of obtaining the bodycam footage that everything else, from Nick himself, to his plea deal, to the police testimony, the forensic results, to these transcripts, don't otherwise provide? Is it to achieve some legal objective, or are we looking for something specific that Nick is being manipulative about or that the police didn't note? Is it just the final confirmation? Is it just on principle?
Because while Nick was entitled to think he was shielded from criticism, his bitterness on our 'standards' is at least explicable, because Hardin is intervening on our behalf in his case, a guy we used to consider a friend of the forum, and make a case to change the applicability of private and public footage for something he does not want shown - which yes, may include further embarrassing his children, as he so often says - but is also against the site's usual ethos. Whether he deserves it or not, I can't blame him for thinking it's personal.
Nicholas is not a special little boy who did nothing wrong with the exclusive right to bend courts and laws to his favor, he is just a jumped up druggie who should start piecing his life together.
