Birkhead to Opri -- I Meant What I Said

Larry Birkhead has responded to Debra Opri's defamation suit.

Opri claims, among other things, that Birkhead slandered her on "Larry King Live," where he said Opri leaked confidential documents to Rita Cosby in his paternity case.

This morning, Birkhead's lawyer, Michael Trope told TMZ, "The defense that we will file in this case will be simple. Truth is a defense."

76. Why doesn't that poor excuse for a attorney just go away quietly! She'll never ever work again......no one in Beverly Hills will ever trust her with their secrets or money......

Posted at 1:24PM on Sep 25th 2007 by Opri, go away!

77. I would take the word of a successful lawyer over a liar and grifter any day. Opri worked hard to get where she is. Larry Sue sues people and uses other peoples money to live and now tries to intimidate people with Stern thugs.

I think that he believes that when he sells pictures of Dannilynn, he is earning a living as a photographer. How can he bank that money in his name, let alone spend it extravagantly?

He lies about every thing, his relationship with Anna, his sexual preferences, signing fee agreements. The only way I will respect him is if he tells his story at the Inquest and puts Coward away and if he stops exploiting his daughter.

78. Opri, Opri.....please do the world a favor.....goooooo far, far away.....you greedy, sleaze bag....

79. Larry paid Opri's fees but he deducted items like: her husband's laundry, lobster dinners with her friends when Larry wasn't even there, her PR guy, her hotel and airfare bills, etc. etc. etc. Larry didn't want Opri to go to the Bahamas but she and her husband wanted a little vacation so off they went, at Larry's expense. Opri makes Anna look like an amateur in the Gold Digging department.

82. Birkhead meant what he said?

When did he mean what he said? He's told so many different stories so many different times so he's not capable of telling the truth.

86. Tricia, you thought Opri would be disbarred? somethings wrong with your mind.

Pat, you think Opri is digging for gold from Larry? The only gold Larry will ever see is what he pimps Dannielynn out for. Opri had money way before lying Larry surfaced.

Posted at 1:46PM on Sep 25th 2007 by Somethings wrong with your thinking

87. 79. I can't believe that Opri is still digging for more gold from Larry! She's disgusting!

NOw Larry is going to have to dig gold out of Dannilynn and sell her more? It is so unfair . Larry should not have to pay any of his bills . That house the Horizons and laywers are suppose to be free! Damit!

88. Opri is such a cry baby (blah, blah, blah.....) I hope people in the entertainment industry who are reading this will stay as far away from her as possible. When I saw her on TV I was totally turned off. Larry you did the right thing and don't cave into her demands. Get some good attorneys and start deposing!!! Don't let up...... Also, subpoena her phone records to see how many times she was caling Rita Cosby and other media while she was representing you. That would be interesting. Get the phone records from after she represented you to see how much she and Rita were talking while the book was being done.

89. The only money Larry & Howard have ever seen is what they stole from Anna & Dannielynn. Two bums living off women & children......too sorry to work.

Posted at 1:51PM on Sep 25th 2007 by Larry is fishing for gold

90. Opri and Larry can go jump off a bridge. Happy sailing!
