Kasim Reed In Legal Battle Over Carnal History


According to a story posted on the AJC web site, Kasim Reed may be headed to court to defend the privacy of his sexual proclivities.

According to the AJC:

“…Kasim Reed is battling with a national website whose forum users have offered speculations on his dating life that he says are not true.

Reed hired Randy Evans of the McKenna Long & Aldridge law firm to send a cease-and-desist demand letter dated October 8 to the firm providing web hosting to (the website).

The letter singles out three posts – from January, April and September of this year – that make statements about who Reed, who’s single, might be seeing socially.”


According to Atlanta Daily Report, when opposing counsel, Paul Levy of the Washington, D.C-based Public Citizen Litigation Group, was apprised of Reed’s attorney's statement to the media, Levy replied,  “I don’t respond well to bullying, and neither does (my client); big talk from a little man.”

In the letter authored by Reed's attorney, Reed disputes claims made about his sexual relations with specific city employees and Reed disputes certain posts about his preferences for what could be called sexual acts of a non-traditional sort.

Curiously, however, Reed's attorney did not dispute posts that had Reed placing former sexual partners on the city payroll.  

Also, Reed's attorney did not dispute those posts that reference sexual liaisons with a woman who worked on Reed's campaign staff when he was elected mayor of Atlanta.   The women later left the campaign to hold a senior position with the food service vendor recently awarded one the largest airport concessions contracts in Atlanta's history.
