During accuser Shay Ruth's deposition, Ruth's lawyers were physically coaching her by squeezing her arm repeatedly and moving their chairs. The judge ordered counsel not to assist Ruth during questioning under threat of sanctions.
#FallenIdols
REMINDER: Nick Carter "declined" to be interviewed because he is currently countersuing his accusers for defamation. He is seeking justice through the legal system, not the court of public opinion. It's very unfortunate that
@discoveryID
chose the latter.
An anonymous, overly detailed (common indicator of a false allegation) account of a "date gone wrong" about someone who has built a career on understanding intricacies of gendered interaction?
No. I'm calling bs on this one.
#azizansari
#FallenIdols
isn't telling you that the ongoing lawsuits are CIVIL, not criminal. All accusers' claims against Nick have been thoroughly investigated by police who found no reason to charge him.
@DiscoveryID
is not being transparent on this point.
#istandwithnickcarter
#MelissaHenschel
waited over two and a half months to even file an opposition to Nick's motion to stay, now she has the nerve to accuse him of stalling. 🙄 This is after waiting 20 years to sue him, but who's counting?

what really shocks me is the people calling BSB fans "crazy" also flat out refuse to read court documents, or even question the narrative

spoonfed them. America is the most propagandized country in the world and it's our own fault. We revel in misinfo.
This is what you needed to get backstage with the

Melissa was "so scared" of Nick that she has since followed him to Las Vegas, and bought a house 15 minutes away from him, along with fellow accuser Shay Ruth. Yeah they're real scared of him. 🙄

has a LONG history of making false accusations against her coworkers. Where there's smoke there's fire.
A stagehand for Dream testified in court that they used stage wedges instead of in-ear monitors because Melissa accused stagehands of touching her.
#fallenidols
The hypocrisy here amazes me. People who think they're advocating for "victims" turn around and mock those of us who are real survivors when we point out the lies and inconsistencies in the

#FallenIdols
Let's Talk LAW: ShayRuth filed an anti-SLAPP motion to dismiss Nick's counterclaim against her. A SLAPP lawsuit is a "meritless" lawsuit with no evidence. The judge denied Shay's anti-SLAPP motion, finding that Nick's evidence supported his counterclaim.
#FallenIdols
won't tell you that Shay's lawyers keep abusing the process, even going so far as to demand that Nick be forced to leave the courtroom and watch proceedings remotely. The judge shot that down real quick! We ALL have the right to confront our accusers in a court of

I'm still in disbelief that

pretended Melissa was harassed and doxxed, yet she and her father literally hired someone to harass BSB fans. I wonder why Fallen Idols didn't tell you that? 🤔
@Erica24Lyn
We're not all the same fans lol Nick Carter's case is currently being litigated in court, this doc should have waited to be released until the court case was settled.
Shay Ruth claims she waited in line for autographs after a Backstreet Boys concert but she could not provide any details such as whether it was inside or outside, how many people waited or how long she stood in line. She couldn't provide details because the line didn't exist 1/2
#fallenidols
At her deposition, Shay Ruth testified "I don't know" 64 times, and "I don't remember" a total of 164 times. The handful of details she did remember were proven to be factually incorrect or outright lies according to her own witnesses.

If you run crying to the media without bringing any evidence to the court, that tells me all I need to know about you. Respect and trust the process.

also never mentioned HPV in her original blog in Nov 2017. It wasn't until April 2023 when she chose to file a civil lawsuit against Nick, that she began claiming he infected her with HPV. If that's true, why wasn't that in her blog? 🤔 Nick has never had HPV.
#MelissaHenschel
's story keeps changing. In her Nov 2017 blog she says "I didn't tell anyone" for weeks. Then in Dec 2017, she told Dr. Oz that she immediately told her roommate and her roommate's mother who encouraged her to get a rape kit.
#fallenidols
#istandwithnickcarter
not because I blindly support a celebrity, as many claim, but because I've read the court documents at Nick Carter's accusers left a paper trail 12 miles wide of their collusion and extortion and they're abusing the judicial process.
In her opposition to stay the LA case, Melissa claims Nick's fans are "defaming and discouraging" her ⤵️ but that didn't stop her from speaking to media *before she even filed the form in court.* She is actively choosing to draw MORE attention to herself.
#istandwithnickcarter
As
#MelissaSchuman
cries to the LA court that Nick's fans are "defaming and discouraging" her, let's remember that she openly called Nick Carter's wife an escort on social media, and dad Jerry called her "trash" and a "freaking prostitute." ⤵️
#istandwithnickcarter
#FallenIdols
#istandwithnickcarter
reminder that Nick Carter has already defeated 2 anti-SLAPP lawsuits, as his accusers fight dirty and have tried to silence him. He has submitted over 800+ pages of evidence proving his innocence. has all the docs!
Shay's lawyers claim that Nick conducted a "one-sided discovery process." Sir, you were also *supposed* to be conducting discovery during this time. What exactly have you been doing the past few months?
UPDATE:
As predicted, the hearing for Nick Carter's Motion for Summary Judgment against Shay Ruth was pushed back till Aug. 22.
His reply will be do 7 days before.

won't tell you that Melissa has a LONG history of making false accusations. A stagehand for Dream named Matthew Bond testified under oath that when he worked for Dream in 2001, Melissa had a reputation & protocols were in place to prevent accusations.
@DiscoveryID
#FallenIdols
won't tell you that Aaron Carter coached Shay Ruth and told her to make up stories about Nick to police. The Tacoma police dept hung up on Shay after hearing Aaron coaching her.
It's ironic because Shay's lawyers have accused Nick of "using his wealth to outlast and outspend" her in their anti-SLAPP motion (which was denied) yet Shay and her lawyers are the ones who continually delay proceedings and drag their feet. 🤔
#istandwithnickcarter
So this would delay the close of discovery from September 27th to December 26th, and delay the possible trial from January to April 2025.
#istandwithnickcarter
#wegotyounickcarter
#MelissaSchuman
claims she "did not take part in drafting or reviewing Shay's complaint," so why did a lawyer send Nick a demand letter in Oct 2020 on behalf of BOTH Melissa and Shay? ⤵️ This was well over 2 years before Shay's lawsuit in Dec 2022.
#istandwithnickcarter
Nick Carter aside,
@DiscoveryID
darlings can't seem to keep their stories straight.
Melissa Schuman testified she had no role in Shay Ruth's 12/22 press conference. Shay? She testified Melissa covered her dress, hair + makeup.
That's participating.

It's a surreal experience, when I quote court documents and provide screenshots as proof, only to be told I'm "deflecting." This person later called me "delusional." Fans are not the ones ignoring reality here.
#istandwithnickcarter
Shay Ruth filed an anti-SLAPP motion to dismiss Nick's counterclaim against her and demanded he show evidence for his claim. Nick provided 300+ pages of evidence. THEN Shay's lawyers said, "don't look at evidence! That doesn't matter!" 🤡

Melissa is literally stalking her alleged "rapist" by the way, she bought a house 15 minutes away from him in 2020. She's so scared of him she moved to the same town so she can run into him in the grocery store.
#FallenIdols
#istandwithnickcarter
@DiscoveryID
reminder that all 3 of Nick Carter's accusers are friends on Venmo, as seen below. ⬇️ Coincidence? Or evidence that they planned to extort him and share the money?
@DiscoveryID
It is truly unconscionable that you would air this, after Shay Ruth admitted under oath that Nick never touched her and that she BRIBED her friend for false testimony.
To anyone who thinks
#istandwithnickcarter

insinuate that Nick had anything to do with his own brother's death? To hide the lack of real evidence they went for the most outlandish claims possible. Aaron accidentally drowned due to drugs, the autopsy was clear. ⤵️
