This saga between Gilbert Arenas and Laura Govan is NEVER going to end. Arenas is suing Govan again for repeating an STD claim about him that already cost her $110K.
The former NBA star filed a defamation lawsuit against Govan, as well as her attorney, Maya Shulman, over a December blog post about the longstanding war between the exes. In the post, Shulman said Laura was “stating a fact” when she accused Arenas of giving her an STD.
Arenas previously won a defamation judgment against Laura over that same allegation after she leaked an email to the blogs. In the new suit, he says Laura and her attorney clearly didn’t learn their lesson, and the December comment constitutes another instance of smearing his good name.
He says Shulman dug her own grave when she issued a retraction in the comments section of the blog, admitting she doesn’t “know any ‘fact’ that supports” Govan’s STD claims. Arenas says it proves she knowingly made a false statement. He adds the retraction didn’t come until two weeks later and was NOT prominent on the site. He’s suing both women for damages.
