I may be incorrect, but isn't this the deposition of Lisa Jackson who is suing Paula, et al? In other words, these are Lisa Jackson's accusations of what Paula may/may not have said and/or done. The case has not gone to trial as far as I know.

I have read the following but can't verify if it is correct. Lisa Jackson's attorney sent Paula a letter asking for in excess of $1 million to settle or she would sue. Paula refused and so the suit is going forward. Now we better understand why corporations are so willing to settle out of court.

Also, according to Paula, she used the n word as the result of a man who she helped get a loan from the bank where she worked robbing the bank and putting a gun to her head. Until I've walked in her shoes, I simply can't condemn her. She has asked for forgiveness and so I forgive her.

I totally agree that she is groveling and should stop apologizing publicly. It is my understanding she has done many good deeds for people over the years. Maybe they should start speaking out but she should stop talking.
