How Herschel Walker Once Sued a WWII Veteran’s Restaurant
To combat the news that he paid for a girlfriend’s abortion, conservative Georgia Senate candidate Herschel Walker has launched what’s been called a “religious counterattack,” shielding himself with a Christian prayer group and a public assertion that he’s “been redeemed” while also maintaining that the woman is lying.
But court records reveal that, in 2007, when a Georgia family appealed to Walker’s Christianity by asking him not to sue their restaurant, Walker still went forward with the legal proceedings.
The records detail a quiet fight in federal court 15 years ago where Walker filed a lawsuit to stop a World War II veteran with his same name running a restaurant on the western outskirts of Savannah.
