Sarah Palin sued in federal court by man claiming she tried to silence his criticism

Theodore Thoma sued former Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin on the grounds that when she was governor she used state resources to silence him for complaining about excessive traffic near the Governor’s Mansion. The man said he also offered suggestions about how to improve the traffic situation.

The complaint states that Palin, “in conspiracy with others, undertook a campaign against plaintiff. In some cases twisting plaintiff’s words, and in others concocting complete fabrications, plaintiff [sic] set about to punish, embarrass, discredit and silence plaintiff and others whom she perceived as speaking out against her.” -db
