    He needs to stick to entertainment. He’s too political. He’s very uneducated politically. If you are going to discuss politics get educated. We know you hate Trump.

Karen Read: Inside Her Civil Case With Karen’s Lawyers!
Q: How did this case arrive to you? And were you eager to hop in?
It was after Karen was acquitted of all charges relating to the death of John O'Keefe, that Alan and Karen came to Shee and Finney, and me and Damon Seligson and Aaron Rosenberg, all sat down with them.
Karen Read: Inside Her Civil Case With Karen’s Lawyers!
Q: So Chaz, in your suit, you claim that Karen was killed inside the home of Nicole and Brian Albert. What type of investigation have you conducted on your own to determine that that actually is the case, that it was in the home?
The complaint sets it all out. And really, it's John O'Keefe's body that dictated and dictates where he was killed. He had lacerations and bruises to his face and his eyes. He had dog bites and scratches on his right arm and forearm. He had a gash to the back of his head from a lead surface, from being assaulted and pushed back.
