Richard A. Luthmann, the former “Game of Thrones Lawyer,” has filed a lawsuit against several prominent defendants, including New York City Council Member Kamillah M. Hanks, Kevin Barry Love (Hanks’ partner, a NYC real estate investor), New York State Supreme Court Justice Ronald Castorina Jr., former Hollywood screenwriter Christopher Ambrose, attorney Eric Nelson, Guy Cardinale, NYC Arts Cypher, Inc., and Sabrina Balducci.
Luthmann, who is proceeding pro se, alleges each defendant either owes him a debt or has committed a crime against him. He alleges that the defendants’ actions aim to avoid these valid debts and cover up existing crimes criminally.
The plaintiff claims he will use the litigation proceeds to satisfy judgments against him by the United States exceeding $500,000.
Luthmann, who was sentenced to prison and has since been released, describes himself as a “broken person” after unjustly going to prison. He claims to be a victim of prison rape, sexual abuse, and torture, resulting in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
Luthmann, after his release from prison, attempted to become a journalist and started writing about court and government corruption. However, he alleges the defendants have hindered his efforts to move on from his past.
Luthmann alleges NYC Councilmember Hanks’s partner, Kevin Barry Love, threatened to revoke his collections lawyers’ licenses and ruin their reputations because they filed a lawsuit against Love and Hanks just a month before. A recording of the conversation exists, capturing Love’s threats:
According to the papers received by the Manhattan Supreme Court, Love is a successful real estate investor and owns several commercial, rent-producing properties, including properties in the NYC Council District Kamillah represents.
Love’s threats were serious enough to prompt Luthmann’s collections lawyers to drop two pending cases due to fear of the council member’s partner’s threats and the government machinery behind them, the papers allege:
As Luthmann transitioned from law to journalism, he pursued a story involving Christopher Ambrose, a lawyer and former Hollywood writer who lost his career after allegations of plagiarism were made against him. Luthmann wrote Ambrose was awarded custody of his teenage children despite his children’s claims of abuse and molestation.
Ambrose reportedly tried to stifle Luthmann’s civil rights, business prospects, and journalism career because Luthmann published unflattering information about him, which Luthmann stood by as indisputably truthful. Due to Ambrose’s alleged lies to federal agents, Luthmann’s probation officer informed Luthmann that he could not report on the government, or practice journalism,.
Luthmann’s complaint is a complex tale of alleged corruption, misconduct, and crimes committed by those in positions of power.
Luthmann, previously convicted of extortion and fraud, claims to be battling against “thugs in public office and perverted lawyers.”
He alleges that defendants Eric Nelson, a Staten Island DA special prosecutor, and Ronald Castorina, a sitting New York State Supreme Court Justice, conspired to secure a bogus grand jury indictment against him.
Luthmann accuses Nelson of committing the felony of Unauthorized Practice of Law by consulting a disbarred federal felon named Perry Reich for legal advice on violating his constitutional rights.
Luthmann also alleges Nelson perjured himself by lying to two judges in affidavits.
His time in a higher security federal prison, where he was sexually assaulted, Luthmann says was due to the “bogus” New York State indictment.
The genesis of the lawsuit Luthmann claims is that Justice Castorina and Councilmember Hanks did not want to pay him for services rendered. He alleges his “Fake Facebook” prosecution for “impersonating” political personas was at their behest.
Luthmann accuses Castorina, Nelson, Hanks, Ambrose, and Love of committing crimes to protect themselves by harming him. He claims they lied to federal agents, violating 18 USC § 1001 and putting professional law enforcement officers in the Middle District of Florida at risk of a 42 USC § 1983 lawsuit.
The Parties
Plaintiff Richard Luthmann, a former New York attorney now residing in Florida, previously owned Luthmann Law Firm, PLLC, in New York.
Defendant Kamillah M. Hanks, a New York City Councilwoman residing in Staten Island, New York, is accused by Luthmann of being a co-conspirator in creating a fake social media page and lying to federal agents.
Kamillah Hanks’ Campaign Committee, the financial entity for her political campaigns, is also a defendant, subject to campaign finance reporting.
Defendant Kevin Love, residing in Staten Island, is Hanks’ partner and alleged co-conspirator. Luthmann accuses Love of defamation against Luthmann and other illegal activities.
Ronald Castorina, Jr., a New York attorney and former New York State Assemblymember, now a New York State Supreme Court Justice, is accused of being a co-conspirator with Luthmann in a separate fake social media page creation. Castorina allegedly lied to federal agents and under oath at a grand jury.
Castorina’s Campaign Committee, responsible for Castorina’s campaign reporting, is accused of campaign finance irregularities.
Christopher Ambrose, a New York attorney, is accused of child abuse and plagiarism, with connections to high-profile political figures.
Another New York attorney, Eric Nelson, is accused of wrongful indictment and conviction against Luthmann, involving criminal activities and perjury.
Guy Cardinale, a former client of Luthmann, is accused of owing substantial legal fees and using aliases.
NYC Arts Cypher, Inc., a non-profit entity where Luthmann served as general counsel, allegedly owes him legal fees.
Sabrina Balducci, executrix of the estate of Charles H. Balducci, and her late husband, a former MTV personality, are also accused of owing Luthmann legal fees.
The lawsuit has been filed, and Luthmann is expected to serve each defendant in the coming days. Following that the defendants will file responses to the claims.
Please leave a comment: Your opinion is important to us!
Hey Luthman, is that sword and shield cosplay photo the one you use on your Grindr profile?
LOL
Is it me or is there a lot of whining going on in this comment section?
I meant to write ‘pay’ her not ‘lay’ her. Plus another thing. It ain’t illegal to make a phony Facebook so why are you trying to out blame on Hanks. The Facebook page was labeled as not official. Anybody but a dunce could see this was not real.
Hanks is too smart to do something illegal. The only reason why Luthmann got charged is the DA was pissed cuz Luthmann made a fake Facebook page on him. Shows how dumb is Luthmann. Imagine going after the most powerful couple in Staten Island.
Poor Castorina he shit bricks. The dumb Republicans let two democrats in their henhouse. Their game of cross endorsements for judges let the lady judge in and she paved it for her Hubble so now dems have payback control of Staten Island. Castorina had to lie his way out but he didn’t have no worries cuz the Da made it clear he weren’t gonna prosecute Castor so long as his memory was weak. That’s why they got Dumbo as special prosecutor.
This is politics in America. It ain’t better than other counties it only pretends to be better.
You just laid out why I will NEVER be done with the McMahons. Ever. They are public servants whose decades of crimes and corruption must become fully exposed. They are the Bill and Hillary Clinton of Staten Island.
I’m a friend of Barry Love and he has to protect his girlfriend. She may have had the fake Facebook idea but Luthmann was the one who did it. I may have an idea to rob a bank but that don’t mean you should do it. Luthmann prolly tipped the election in castorina but no one serious suggests that Luthmann tipped Hanks election. She would a won anyways so why should she lay her. Barry didn’t get where he is today for paying for no results.
It was much more than an idea. Kevin Barry Love and Kamillah Hanks directed the creation of the Fake Facebook page. They monitored and had full knowledge of the activities. Kamillah Hanks provided me with pictures of Debi Rose to use on the page. That is an action, and you just admitted that Kamillah Hanks was an uncharged co-conspirator in the Fake Facebook felony.
Kamillah Hanks, a sitting NYC Council member, committed a felony. Just because she wasn’t charged by a corrupt special prosecutor doesn’t mean she shouldn’t be held politically accountable.
Ask Kevin Barry Love about the “small fortune” he paid to keep Kamillah from testifying in the 2018 grand jury. He’s told many, many people about that.
Sounds like the three of you actually suck. I’m a full grown man and never heard of making fake Facebook accounts when I didn’t get pick 1st for volleyball 😒 but then Twitter happened and now Luthmans poor ego is really feeling shitty or is he just butt hurt?
You obviously didn’t read the evidence presented. There are messages from both Hanks and Castorina where they sent photos to Luthmann for him to post on those fake Fasebook pages. The Special Prosecutor got those messages with his subpoenas yet chose not to present them to the Grand Jury or Charge either Hanks or Castorina, nor did he present any exculpatory evidence or explain the 1st Amendment to the Grand Jury when they requested that explanation. The whole thing was a railroad job and it will cost both Castorina and Nelson to get their tickets pulled.
Keep on dreaming, Mr. Nast(y)
I’m sorry for calling you Mr., without asking your pronouns first.
How do you identify?
I like this Luthmann guy. Why don’t he become the new vanguard?
The Vangaurd was the Vag-gaurd. Don’t think Luthmans guards much liked the box. Dicks guards liked sweaty, stale-man chromosomes.
What Richard went through was abhorrent. If a woman was exposing these crimes would she then be t gf the target of so many obnoxious jokes?
Dames got their own cross to bare.
That said, chill boys and girls, Richard went through hell.
Let’s not keep him there in this victim shame based purgatory
Re Luthman & Sexual Assault:
My guess is Rich Luthman was not able to pay protection money.
The prisoner groups and gangs attempt to extort every and any money an inmate has or has access to ,i.e. family and friends.
The gangs will find away to squeeze you.
It’s my guess.
My apology came forthwith!
I hadn’t read the article….
Kamel-a Harris “discussed the allegations against Biden, declaring of the accusers: “I believe them, and I respect them being able to tell their story and having the courage to do it.”
Remember that? When Misses Kamel-a-face herself, said that about her boss, sleepy Joe? Back in 2019, when she was ridin’ against Biden? Once she saw she wasn’t going to be the Pres., she rolled the dice, n settled for the vice. Suddenly all those women who were coming forward about rape and such didn’t matter that much.
In short, these dim wits don’t give two figs about real justice. To them, rape mind as well just be a # or a new, edgy perfume. Sure, you know, “Rape” by Christian Dior, or BAALenciaga.
Don’t give up. Just wait, til its IN to defend your case. Maybe all you gotta do is change your status from a he to a pronoun. That’ll get em the vote.
Hi ShadowState!
How are tricks – turn any lately?
I bet you a bottom dollar you’re a $30 bottom.
Allison Pimp Mack still haunting your dreams!!!!! I remember those Kankel bookends you want to make. Taxidermy is a hobby for some but a passion for you!
Haven’t you heard the news. Shadow became. Biden supporter and is supplementing his income by selling Amway products.
Lob, savior of the Universe!
Lobo-guy is here to save the day! But, his mighty kidney stones aren’t okay.
Too bad you are not feeling well Lobo Star. Check your stash of ripple, you might be getting low. If you ran out, you can always just bang your head on the floor ( again )
The Chinese are taking over.
Rich-
On second thought:
I want to sincerely apologize for crapping on you.
If you were truly sexually assaulted in prison you are deserving of financial compensation.
It’s has to be humiliating to admit to getting raped. I can’t imagine the trauma you’ve gone through.
Take care!
Agreed he should fight, not only for himself but for everyone else whose been raped. I was raped in the work place. No one cared. At all. Messed me up.
It’s interesting that Richard said in a previous post that the rape was purely physical and as such not a big deal compared to the emotional torture of being in solitary confinement. Either he is in denial or he is lying about being raped. Since we are allowed to question whether people are lying about being raped or not here I think it’s fair for me to make this comment.
He should fight.
But he refuses to name his rapist and set a time and place for the duel.
Why?
It couldn’t be because he’s a castrated wanker, could it?
Chris is busy bolting the doors shut and putting alarms on doors and windows. Dcf is good with this. Protecting the child abuser. CT is hazardous to children. Pedo state.
Rich-
If nothing else, you are a character.
Best wishes!
What I don’t understand is why aren’t you filing criminal charges against the inmates who raped you? It doesn’t add up.
1. They are judgment proof.
2. Some are gang affiliated and that puts me and my family at risk.
3. I don’t trust the Feds, particularly the OBiden DOJ.
4. The American criminal justice system is a joke.
5. The Feds can’t protect you.
6. Many were foreign nationals that I’d rather see deported back to their shit hole countries rather than sit in the BOP and get feel with US taxpayer dollars.
I could go on and on…
Can you please “ go on and on”
More?
Still a bit confusing.
We are inspired.
There is no way the prison is ever going to admit a rape occurred under their watch. Do you think Rich will be able to then prove a rape and hold the prison accountable? They allow it to happen. There will be no justice in that capacity.
That’s why he should start a class action law suit. Go to the ACLU. Unfortunately he’s not the only one. I went through a similar situation. 1,000 of us all at same institution. We won. Consequently, It changed regulations.
balls of steel luthmann.
Mr. Luthmann, you are in inspiration to rape victims everywhere.
You aren’t just taking it sitting down and instead taking the fight to them!
Then the storm broke, and the dragons danced. The Iron Throne will go to the man who has the strength to seize it.
“Leave One Wolf Alive And The Sheep Are Never Safe.”
“Never forget what you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armour yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.”
Hopefully Castorina gets removed from the bench so I can make myself a judge.
Damn. I hope Kamillah’s campaign finance shenanigans that my office overlooked won’t come back to bite me in the ass now that all this controversy is swirling.
Luthmann is a warrior. He will prevail on all applicable matters.
Bold and brave. Thank you for standing up for the Ambrose kids. And taking on that animal of a father.
Luthmann was convicted of extortion and fraud. Should he testify at trial he has a significant obstacle to overcome in order to prevail.
Federal Rule 609 allows a witness to be impeached with any conviction in which proving the elements to the offense(s) involved a dishonest act or false statement. Federal Jury Instruction 2.19 requires the court to inform the jury, “You may consider this evidence, along with other pertinent evidence, in deciding whether or not to believe (name) and how much weight to give to (name)’s testimony.” If the trial is before the court without a jury, this instruction will be considered by the court as it weighs the evidence.
Opposing counsel will impeach Luthmann with the priors, and then argue to the jury (or court) that it can disregard any of his testimony that it wants to.
I can’t wait for that one. It leads down one hell of a rabbit hole.
Luthmann –> Guy Cardinale –> Bruce Baron –> Dennis Quirk–> Mike and Judy McMahon –> ??
?? = Acting US Attorney Bridget Rohde? Joe Crowley? Chuck Schumer? Eric Vitaliano? Hillary Clinton?
If they open the door about it, it swings wide…
LOL. You are deluded Luthman. You are just wasting your time on these frivolous lawsuits to make yourself feel like you aren’t a pitiful betaboy that no female wants within ten feet of her.
You are a disgrace to the legal profession, which is already disgraceful.
Get a job.
LOL.
You also sound delusional when you say that you “identify as a journalist.”
In order to convince the snowflakes, that’s the language you have to use nowadays. I agree it sucks.
I’m sorry Richard but you do not have the personality to be a journalist. You use it to attack people. Do you really not understand that “satire” is not journalism?
I don’t do satire anymore. Are you an illiterate? I mean that seriously.
Well, then you might want to proofread your lawsuit.
I put a bunch of pictures in the exhibits just for people like you.
He exposes the truth which leads to accountability.
Accountability? It let him to prison.
I wonder if the Staten Island Advance will cover this? I’d bet not. Brian Laline’s head is so far up Mike and Judy McMahon’s ass, he hasn’t had a breath of fresh air for 20 years.
How is Castorina still sitting on the bench?
How does Nelson or Castorina still have a law license?
I don’t know. He is fat bastard. Surprised his fat ass can remain upright for more than a few seconds.
That’s why he’s a bottom.
Fantasies Schmatisies. “Guy”, find a hook up app, or handle your scandal your self. No one wants to read about your perverted desires. And we all know you do like kankles and you are also posing as Lobotomy Guy. Clearly you are way too hot n bothered, hence the name Lobotomy- you were referring to your little head. Extra Tiny head. Hahah oh Guy. Just joking. I’m sure you really think he is a bottom and you will, of course write at least two more comments about it. God save the Queen!
Like Luthmann
Go get ’em Richard!
Barry Love wasn’t he used to be with The Beach Boys. He’s got a real nice voice ok on the tape. Where he tells the lawyer how he’s got the FBI working for him.
Rarely do these criminals have to face the repercussions of their bad- deeds.
Usually the victim is left so compromised it’s difficult to maintain a decent life- and near impossible to muster the finances to pay a lawyer and seek retribution.
From Ambrose to Love to Castoria- Richard Luthmann is smarter and more capable than all of them. Looking forward to discovery – they should each be nervous.
the politicans are rapists of course its going to be hard to get their help
Game of Thrones lawyer? What the hell does that mean? You should totally see if Burger King needs a side kick. It would probably be more fun than suing people you probably intentionally pissed off in the 1st place.
Actually, I’m not really a fan of New York’s corrupt legal system. It’s a bigger joke than the bowties and the swords. In reality, I wish I had access to the Clintons’ “suicide hotline.”
OK Richie
Evidently you subscribe to “contempt before investigation.” Richard made national news identifying New York law that indeed still recognizes combat as a viable mode of resolution, and the Court had to grudgingly agree. In advancing, Richard drew attention to how unsatisfying today’s common resolution is: settlement after months, years, decades of expensive paper-pushing posturing. At no point do the litigants face-off and stand behind their claims, and ‘fight’ to have the superior prevail as the victor.
The balance of your disparaging remarks reveal a similar lack of understanding of how to draw attention to one’s cause. Only a legal genius with an Ivy League mind could so present, and yet fall to none in his incisive argument.
Richard, is Stephanie Jones your pen name?
1.Mr. Luthman will you be personally handing Chrs Ambrose his?
2.Are you sure you’re smart enough to out wit all of these people at the same time? I feel like Ambrose is smarter than you, but only by judging yours and Ambrose track record, according to Google. Not that youre guilty. I 100 percent believe you were wrongfully imprisoned.
I’m not worried about Ambrose. When you have the truth, you don’t have to scheme.
He’s going to have to sit for a deposition, and I’m going to be the one asking the questions.
Plus, he’s opened up a war on too many fronts. The only reason (in my humble opinion) he twisted Jennifer’s Law and filed for the restraining order against Karen Riordan was so that he wouldn’t get investigated and charged for molestation. The further this case goes, the more pressure on him and the closer he is to the jackpot. And prison isn’t fun for CHOMOs.
What planet are you on Richard? Ambrose was thoroughly investigated, and they found the molestation charges were unfounded.
It’s like lice, you have to go back over the the case with a fine tooth comb. I’m on holiday break , so if you need any help 😉
Stop lying Chris. Nothing was investigated. Nice try though. You’re a pedo and it’s been proven. Luthman’s lawsuit will bring out all the buried evidence. No worries fucking creep.
You’re wrong. It was all investigated. No worries fucking creep, back at ya.
He kids were found to be unsafe in his care. Same claims of sexual abuse and assualt have been made consistently. Ambrose is trying to silence his kids. He’s in fear of jail because he should have been put there long long ago. Kids don’t forget. And now they are held captive by their abuse. WIth alarm locks on all the doors and windows. He’s a sick sick fuck.
They were not found unsafe in his care. They were found unsafe in their mothers care, which is why there is a new 1-year restraining order against her. Duh.
Ah, but who did the “found” and who paid for the finding?
Taxpayers paid the various police departments. Insurance pays the hospitals. Taxes pay DCF. Taxes pay judges.
🤣😂🤣😂 Sure you were Chris. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣
Hah! By who? The gal? His pal DeGorrsey? Dcf? Nice try asshole. You’re done.
wait? are you sure this isn’t ” it’s not Chris”?
Excuse me, I mean the molestation allegations since he was never charged with anything
Just wait. It will all come out in the wash, Christopher.
Will the towels be in there?
😂
Chris, I trust your kids over a DNC/Clinton lawyer and a known plagiarist whose computer history points to Latin Boyz.com like wind vane.
I guess you missed the part where a dirty PI working for Karen had possession of Chris’s computer when that URL appeared there.
What does being a democrat have to do with anything? are you a Q-anon cult member?
And also, oh my God, he duplicated his own work! For an actual TV show! People could’ve died from exposure to that rehashed plot.
Get a grip.
Two things wrong here. He is not credited for creating the work on Bones which he plagiarized to use in Instinct where he was credited for writing. Secondly even if he had created the work and got paid for it on Bones he was not entitled to get paid for it on Instinct without disclosing his taking a story from Bones and selling it as original and new. He committed fraud plain and simple.
Who cares? So audiences were exposed to a rehashed plot. I don’t believe anybody died or was traumatized by watching a it. You love to make out like it was some major crime. No criminal or even civil charges were filed. It was for a fictional TV show. No Amish were harmed in the making of the episode.
Many in the Democrat Party enable sex offenders.
And Ted Bundy was a staunch Republican. I guess that means you approve of men who rape torture and kill women and girls.
By the way, what’s the deal with that part in the lawsuit that says you were heading to a house of prostitution??
It was proven. Child trafficking in CT family court. The kids are telling the truth. The courts are working hard to hide it but it’ll come out. Ambrose is too much of a fuck up.
It wasn’t proven. If it was, where is that proof? If there is actual proof, I will gladly admit that I am wrong, but all the documentation I’ve viewed shows that it was all thoroughly investigated by police doctors, nurses, psychiatrists, DCF, workers and more. There was no evidence of any abuse by the father. Only psychological abuse by the mother Karen.
I heard Ambrose’s uncle was a priest that was a documented sexual pervert? Is pedophilia hereditary?
Correct. An uncle on his mothers side of the family. “Father Harry” – another pedo in the Catholic Church. Ambrose likely inherited it.
I heard your aunt was a nun who was a documented kleptomaniac?
Good, I hope you win and totally agree he did this to cover his crimes. Hopefully with your sword and Mr Parlatos axe you guys will put those kids back with their mother.
Do you know if Chris is a vegetarian or is he only into that when he’s in the mood for little Latino boyz?
Ambrose admitted the only reason he got the RO was to keep his slimes ass out of jail!
Can someone explain to me how that RO would possibly keep him from being investigated? Just because Karen has to stay away from the children doesn’t mean she can’t report him to the police for an investigation. Which she and her flying monkeys have done countless times. And there have been several investigations. Including by police.
Luthmann is “out-there” smart. What held him back and caused a lot of his problems was that he was on the sauce. That’s what you’ve seen on Google. Now, he’s straight, and I wouldn’t want him with his sights set on me.
Ambrose is better than a polluted Luthmann. But not this new iteration.
Amen. Exactly correct. Sometimes I’m not sure I still just love him to death (13 years of shenanigans together) or I’m too terrified, rightfully so, of currying his ire.
His is the legal mind of a generation, as I often tell him. I always then also remind him that he and I are not if the same generation
OK Richie
Ambrose is a dumbass with money. End of story.
Ambrose is going to be destroyed in court. He’s no lawyer. Just a blithering failed fiction writer who files frivolous lawsuits to drain bank. He thought he’d get Luthmann in jail. He’s failed. Now he’s scared because he’s going to be exposed. He’s no match for Rich.
Mexico is coming for Ambrose. 🇲🇽
Sounds like Mexico already came in Luthmann
“There’s so much corruption in the world …” seems to say nothing can be done about it. “There’s so much sin in the world …” puts it in perspective.
just drink kool aid then? depress much? geeesseeeee
Sue for every penny they have…
I intend to. But this one’s not about money. Not any more. Kevin Barry Love saw to that when he chased of my collections lawyers, who probably would have kept me under control and found a way to settle. Now, my only goal is the truth.
