Covington Catholic high school students have been inundated death threats after an incredible amount of negative press.
They, Sam and Grant, are now speaking out in conjunction with CJ Pearson, who just published this new video:
WATCH: For the first time, Covington Catholic students respond to the onslaught of death threats, slander, and libel they’ve faced in the last 48 hours. #StandWithCovington #VERIFIEDBULLIES pic.twitter.com/4OtlTXQAVj

I know the video is a little blurry, so here’s a pic of these two students from Pearson:
Video statement coming soon from my friends at Covington Catholic.
It’s their turn to speak.

Pearson also claims that everyone who defamed, slandered, and doxxed these Covington students are going to get ‘served’:
We’re getting new submissions every 30 seconds. Every member of the media who defamed, slandered, and doxxed the #CovingtonBoys on Twitter will be served.
Each and every tweet will be archived and turned over to the students’ legal counsel. pic.twitter.com/nk4DkQ7AmK

When challenged on this because he’s not their lawyer, he responded:
Maybe because I'm been in contact with their legal team. While you've been tweeting, I've been working. Go write some more trash for the National Review (one of the many publications that maligned these kids), thanks. https://t.co/C2E2bghLmc

There are other rumors of a lawsuit coming out of this:
I was on the phone with a Covington mom and someone from @Barnes_Law legal firm earlier today. Buckle your seatbelts fake news.

Y’all think those Covington kids aren’t going to sue? @Barnes_Law brought a much more complicated lawsuit wirh @CassandraRules as a client.
He’s not afraid to litigate these cases.
Yes he “lost” that case, because it was testing bounds of law.
Covington cases slam dunks.

We’ll have to wait and see if there ends up being a lawsuit that comes out of this. No doubt there are plenty of guilty parties all around.
I haven’t kept up with CJ Pearson since he renounced conservatism back in 2015 over racism or something, after first coming out against Obama. So maybe he’s legit nowadays? I just hope these Covington teens know what they are doing.
