I wonder who will end up getting the worst beat down, the guy Huerta took out, or the lawyer who that guy will most assuredly hire to take every single penny that Huerta is worth?
“Hey they can’t do that man the guy had it coming.”
Ha ha…kids.
The woman that waits for the man to take every penny Huerta is worth then takes every penny he’s worth.

This is the second post that touts the womans ability to drain her assailant of every cent he has. Bravo, glad you guys are catching on. However, that does not help Roger Huerta one single bit now does it? He still loses in (civil and criminal) court.
Why do I have to spell this out?
Huerta cannot win from this little escapade of his. That no one else has pointed this out is just dam shocking.
Let me help those who might still want to debate the point:
He cannot win because if he is exonerated of all fault it will cost him greatly in lawyers fees. Last time I checked a good lawyer started at $250 per hour and up depending on what part of the country you live in and how good the lawyer is.
He could lose his freedom and every penny he is worth, cars, house, gym equipment etc. If he’s not worth anything there’s a little thing called a garnishee of future wages, earnings etc. Some of you blockheads who have fathered children and tried to escape your responsibilities know all about the garnishee of wages. Those who have not had this experience, I can understand why you wouldn’t know anything about it.
What Huerta did was the peak of stupidity. He not only intervened in this dispute he did it after the fact. The crime was over, the woman was no longer in danger from the man. The man was actually fleeing down the street.
Here’s one way it may sound in court:
“Your honor my client was literally chased down by this, this brutal professional martial artist who fights in a cage! This man should be jailed, he is a danger to society. Heaven knows how many other people he has abused in this manner. He was repeatedly cautioned by his own friend not do go through with this senseless act of violence. Then when he caught up to my client he not only knocked him to the ground with a brutal punch, but repeatedly struck my helpless unconscious client about the head and neck area actually trying to kill him! It is only by the grace of God that my client is even now able to function at a limited level. It is the duty of every peace loving society to get rid of street thugs like Roger Huerta.”
That’s a brief (and sloppy) summation of his criminal trial to give those of you who have zero experience with the system a wake up call. Depending on the specific injuries suffered by the man Huerta could go to jail for several years. That kind of puts a little crimp in his ma career huh?
His civil trial will be even worse as they don’t have to prove with in a shadow of a doubt. All a civil jury needs is something called “preponderance of evidence.” That means that it’s much easier to find him guilty. A good example of this is the OJ Simpson murder trial. OJ beat the criminal trial, but actually lost the 30 million dollar civil suit launched by the Goldman family (and others). Okay that was 15 years ago and most of you were probably only interested in making the Little League team. But it’s the best, and most well known example of how someone can beat a criminal case and still be held accountable through civil action.
As I said if for some reason God smiles on Huerta he will still be saddled with legal fees which could stretch out over a long period of years, as many civil suits do and cost him tens of thousands of dollars.
Huerta cannot win in any way shape or form regarding this case.
Some may still think “it was cool dude,” but in reality it was really, really dumb dude.

Actually, I never actually saw roger take one swing in that video. The headstomp motion could have not hit the guy but been a warning, and also you can’t tell if it’s roger or one of the other shirtless guys out there. We did however see another man take a swing at the guy and miss, so there were obviously men there besides roger who wanted to hit this guy. While we all assume we know what happened, none of US can be sure, and with that being said, none of US can be sure that this guy is going to sue roger and win because of this.
This video WILL be show to anyone judging the case, and I’m pretty sure that a jury or even a judge is going to be pretty leniant after they view the sucker punch on a girl. It’s not like you have robots making decisions based on the strictest definitions of the law. You have Women who have daughters, Men who have daughters, Grandmothers and grandfathers all who will be looking at this through thier own personal lens.
I know if I was sitting on the jury, I would completely ignore what the judge told me and focus soley on the fact that this guy dropped a girl.
