Dog Chapman Sues: Bitch Sold Me Out!

Dog Chapman is suing a publicist he once trusted, claiming she vengefully leaked personal information about him to a tabloid.

In one of the more vitriolic lawsuits we've seen in a while, Chapman calls Maureen Krutonog "the Benedict Arnold of the publicity world" for allegedly leaking "private and confidential information" about Dog to the National Enquirer. He claims Maureen "completely ignored her moral, ethical and contractual duties" and calls her betrayal "a blatant display of duplicity."

Krutonog's husband, Boris, used to be Dog's manager. Boris sued A&E Network and the producers of "Dog the Bounty Hunter" earlier this year, claiming he was wrongfully 86'd. Dog thinks the actions of Boris' wife were simply revenge.

We reached Maureen Krutonog, who quickly said she'd call us back. We're still waiting.

16. I find it amazing how many people overlook the charitable acts the Chapmans do. They have granted requests from Make A Wish for dying children, they raised a large sum of money for the Mooseheart Child City and School, and their 100th episode party raised money for the March of Dimes, not to mention the other fundraisers and toy drives they have supported. It would be nice to see more about that in print.

19. Ewwwwwwwww....the dog and his family are ignorant white-trash. I used to think he was an okay guy, just different from everyday. He went to Mexico and hunted down a rapist and brought him back to the US! Sweeeet!

Then, when I heard his raspy, ignorant rant using the n-word regarding his son's girlfriend, I lost ALL restpect. He sounded cheap and ugly. Do we all make mistakes? Yes. But this came from his heart and showed everything he is truly about.

So he gives to charities....big fricking woop. Any idiot can do that - and if they do, does that make everything else okay anyway????? He only talks it and does not walk it.

22. If someone does them wrong they have just as much as a right to sue as anyone else does. Leave your trashy comments elsewhere. How about if something happened to you and you felt that it needs legal attention would you like it if people trashed you, I don't think so. Apparently some of you do not understand how to treat others, maybe if you watched the show you would learn because Dog helps others turn their life's around for the better. He doesn't have to do that, but he goes beyond the call of duty because he cares. He wants to help others just as others have helped him to get on the right track and be a productive member of society. If we didn't have such self less people helping others we would have a lot more unproductive members of society.

23. As someone has already pointed out all the work the Chapmans do for chairties get's over looked, This is so sad.....people should be noticed for the good they do and not in petty little things that need not be reported about!!!

I'm so happy for the Chapmans reaching thier 100th episode on AE, and i admire all the hard work they put in not only catching the criminals and ''fixing'' them but i admire the chartiable work they do and all the money they have raised for the less fortunate and sick children.

Keep up the good work guys!

24. What I’d like to know is why everyone keeps givin’ the Chapman’s of them a hard time?? ANY Dog fan WILL tell you that the Chapman’s are AMAZING people. Beth is NOT annoying whoever said that. Beth is a VERY smart & Beautiful woman who has a strong personality, she just doesn’t take any crap from ANYBODY. There are VERY few woman these days that will stand up for themselves. Beth has it all she’s got brains and beauty and she’s caring and would do ANYTHING for ANYONE. As far as Dog being on Ice that was MANY MANY moons ago. He knows it was a BAD choice and he also knows he’s made more than one bad choice and he reminds people everyday. HE’S HUMAN…People make mistakes!! Its part of being human..DUH. Yes, he did say the “N” word that was another MISTAKE, but you know what. I KNOW you’ve said the word before too, if you sit there and tell me you haven’t, you’re a liar. 90% of people in this word have used that word, whether they were using it as slang terminology or it accidentally slipped out. If he would have said “cracker” to somebody, it wouldn’t have been a big deal. That’s what’s wrong with this world today, you take one word and it can only be used by one race. If that word is SOOO damn offensive anyway why do black people say it to each other all the time and use it in their music?? Why do people ALWAYS concentrate on the bad that the Chapman’s do and they overlook the good?? I don’t understand that. Why don’t the Chapman’s get any Recognition for the good they’ve done? They have raised SOO much money for Charities/Children’s Charities. They keep the streets safe for everyone. They keep all the CRAZIES OFF the streets. They help people get OFF drugs and get jobs. They CARE!! What other Bounty Hunters do you know that do this?? Umm…NOBODY. If they “suck” so much why have they just passes their 100th episode on TV and still going? Which they had a 100th Episode party and charged people $5 and ALL the money went towards the March of Dimes. This chic is just tryin’ to get money outta them just like everyone else that has sued them. You are all putting the Chapman’s down well, this chic is NO better. I admire the Chapman’s for EVERYTHING they do & EVERYTHING they stand for.

P.S. LarnieBelle Yes, EVERYONE can give to charities, do you?? I’m sure you don’t. And when Dog said the “N” word NO, it didn’t come from his heart (he‘s BETTER than that). I bet you 2 to 1 you’ve said that word before. So, why are you raggin’ on him for it?? He apologized and has been forgiven so MOVE ON!!!! Yes, Dog can talk it AND walk it!!!!!!
