MAGA lawyer Lin Wood slapped with thousands in criminal contempt fines

Disgraced Trump-loving attorney Lin Wood is in hot water again — this time for defying a judge's protective order not to attack his former legal colleagues, reported The Daily Beast on Friday.

"Pro-Trump attorney Lin Wood was slapped with $5,000 of criminal contempt fines on Thursday for violating an order against insulting his former law partners... with the threat of $15,000 in civil contempt charges if Wood breaks the order in future," reported Dan Ladden-Hall.

Wood reportedly spent much of the hearing disputing what he called the "salacious" allegations against him, saying, "I try to live a Christ-like life" and that his reward will be "Heaven."

Wood, once a high-profile celebrity lawyer who worked on the JonBenet Ramsey case, attracted national attention after pushing a series of baseless conspiracy theories that the 2020 presidential election was stolen, alleging with no evidence that an international cabal of communists worked with establishment Republican operatives and the Chinese spy network to rig the election for President Joe Biden. He has called for the arrest of multiple Republican officials in Georgia, called for Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell to be jailed for treason and former Vice President Mike Pence to be executed by firing squad, and even suggested that Chief Justice John Roberts is involved in child sex trafficking.

None of his lawsuits to overturn the election, often in conjunction with fellow conspiracy theorist attorney Sidney Powell, have gone anywhere.

He is currently being sued by partners of the law firm where he used to work, after he allegedly defamed them by claiming they were in league with the "Deep State." They have also alleged he lied to a judge and concealed a scheme to steal their share of a settlement they brokered for Nick Sandmann, the former Covington Catholic student who sued CNN and The Washington Post for their coverage of his interaction with a Native American activist at the Lincoln Memorial.

On top of all this, Wood is facing disciplinary bar action in Georgia over his conduct around the election.
