Wanetta Gibson is nailed for $2.6 million by school board

Wanetta Gibson-worthless cunt


Long Beach Unified wins judgment against accuser in false rape case against Brian Banks

WANETTA-GIBSON-400LOS ANGELES – The Long Beach Unified School District won a $2.6 million default judgment against a woman whose false rape allegation in 2002 cost the school district money and landed a fellow student in jail.

Although Wanetta Gibson has not appeared in court throughout the proceedings and her whereabouts were not know, the ruling allows the school district to recoup the money through her future wages and property.

Gibson was a student at Long Beach Poly High when she first sued the district for having lax security and an unsafe environment after she accused Brian Banks, a promising football star, of rape.

Gibson later recanted the rape claim on tape, paving the way for Banks’ exoneration of the charge – however, he had already served more than five years in prison.

Banks earlier this year signed a contract to play football for the Atlanta Falcons. He was unavailable for comment.

According to the school district, the judgment recoups a $750,000 settlement paid to Gibson and also includes attorney’s fees, interest and $1 million in punitive damages.

“The court recognizes that our school district was a victim in this case,” Long Beach Unified Superintendent Christopher J. Steinhauser said.

“This judgment demonstrates that when people attempt to defraud our school system, they will feel the full force of the law.”

When the school district first announced it was suing Gibson, district spokesman Chris Eftychiou said “It is important to convey that the school board isn’t going to sit idly by if someone tries to defraud it of taxpayer resources.”

Lawyers from the school district were unable to locate Gibson, who in 2007 was awarded the settlement.

The Press-Telegram reported initially that Gibson received $750,000 from a $1.5 million overall settlement.

When Banks was exonerated in May 2012, the school district refused comment on whether it would pursue Gibson for damages.

The district has since filed a complaint in Long Beach Superior Court and a summons against Gibson.

In January, when Gibson could not be found, an order for publication was granted, meaning Gibson could be served via a public announcement.

Legal experts debated whether a judgment would be won from Gibson if she had adequate representation.

The statute for limitations on fraud is three years from when it is discovered; it is unclear whether the clock should begin when Gibson recanted on tape, or whether it could have been discovered earlier with reasonable diligence.

Gibson was also a juvenile when she first accused Banks, but not when she received the award.

Court records show Gibson has had a tumultuous life since she won the settlement, with a number of claims lodged by and against her in civil litigation, including temporary restraining orders and domestic violence charges.

According to news reports, Gibson and her children have received public assistance and she has been sued by the county for child support.

After Banks’ release from prison, Gibson sent him a “friend” request on Facebook and was seeking to “let bygones be bygones.”

Private investigator Freddie Parish, whose son played football with Banks at Poly, was able to elicit the recantation on audio and videotape from Gibson, who was unavailable for comment.

In the tape, which has been widely circulated since Banks was exonerated in May 2012, Gibson gives one-word “no” answers when Parish asks her if she was raped or kidnapped. In a separate interview, Gibson said she was hesitant to help Banks when he asked for her help.

“I will go through with helping you, but all that money they gave us, I mean, gave me, I don’t want to have to pay it back, all of it, because that would take a long time,” Gibson said.

Poetic fucking justice. That is what I say. Now throw this bitch in prison so she knows how it feels. Fucking worthless cunt. I'm glad she got nailed and will have her future earnings garnished. Maybe they should give the money to Brian Banks since Gibson turned his life upside down.

Justice catches up with Wanetta Gibson



LONG BEACH, Calif. (KABC) — The Long Beach Unified School District is suing a woman who falsely accused former student and football star Brian Banks of rape, saying it wants to get back some of the money it paid her in a settlement.

The school district wants to press criminal charges against Wanetta Gibson. The district says the lawsuit was filed months ago, but Gibson was finally served Friday.

It’s all possible thanks to one dramatic moment.

Gibson sat down in a private investigator’s office last year and made a startling confession about Brian Banks, the man she once accused of rape. Her recantation was captured on video. Gibson is asked if Banks raped her. She can be seen and heard saying, “No, he did not.” She is asked if Banks kidnapped her. Again, she replies, “No, he did not.”

Soon after, Banks was exonerated.

Gibson had previously claimed that Banks raped her at Long Beach Polytechnic High School while they were both students there. Banks was then a football stand-out committed to play at the University of Southern California. Instead, he spent years behind bars.

Gibson sued the school district and won $750,000. Now the district wants its money back. It is suing her for the $750,000, and more than $1 million in damages.

A district spokesman said in a statement: “Our school district takes seriously our obligation to be a good steward of public funds. It’s important to convey that our school board will take action to recoup any losses if someone attempts to defraud our schools of much-needed resources.”

It’s a happier ending for Banks, who recommitted himself to fulfilling his NFL dream. Last year he earned a tryout with the Seattle Seahawks, and just recently he was signed by the Atlanta Falcons.

Banks was in San Diego Friday night practicing for the upcoming season. He did not return an email regarding Friday night’s development.

But in the past he’s said he’s no longer concerned with Wanetta Gibson and doesn’t plan to sue her himself. He just wants to focus on his life and football.

I hope this fucking cunt does time on top of it. Throw the fucking book at her. Hey feminists didn't you say women never lie about rape. You said it yes you did. Now what do you have to say? Lying cunts. How about that principal that said Brian Banks could never return regardless? I say fire him,take away his pension,starve his ass close to death and throw him in the desert for the animanls to rip his flesh from his bones. It's the only good he can possibly give to any creature. He's just garbage otherwise. No good to anyone.
