Tim Ballard lawsuit update: A lot of Utah strip clubs are being subpoenaed.
They're asking for records related to Tim Ballard, Matt Osborne, Mike Porenta, and Matt Cooper
Tim Ballard's attorney says all of the subpoeanas should be quashed because the records contain "highly sensitive and confidential information belonging not only to Mr. Ballard, but also to individuals and entities who have nothing to do with this case..."
One of the subpoenas is for Mac's Place.
The "unofficial office" for Utah AG Sean Reyes, where he allegedly sits "on a leather chair that Kanye West purchased" for him.
It asks for additional records related to Sean Reyes, Paul Hutchinson, LAVA, the Nazarene Fund, the Global Empowerment Fund, the Spear Fund, and Aerial Recovery.
Tim Ballard is scheduled to be deposed on November 4, 2024.

BREAKING — Sperm on alleged victim’s skirt “was a 100% match of (Tim) Ballard’s DNA” according to latest court filing.
Celeste Borys is one of the women accusing Tim Ballard of sexual assault. She used to be his executive assistant.
She and her attorneys say detectives told them about the 100% DNA match after the skirt was sent to the Utah Crime Lab, but detectives won’t release the paperwork because criminal investigation is ongoing.
(2) Several months ago, Tim Ballard’s psychic, Janet Russon, released a YouTube video explaining it might be because he shared a suitcase with Celeste.
Her attorneys tell me they never shared a suitcase.
So far, Tim Ballard’s team has not commented.
(3) So far, the Utah County Sheriff’s Office has not commented.
“As a sex assault victim, Plaintiff believes she is entitled to the results.”

THREAD 🧵- After an extremely graphic and emotional night of testimony, Utah is now moving forward with a bill that would criminalize “ritualistic” abuse of children.
@KenIvoryUT
(2) Rep. Ken Ivory (R-West Jordan) is sponsoring the bill.
"I had a survivor tell me that, as a child, she was told that they had planted a bomb inside of her and that if she told anyone? They could detonate the bomb."
(3) With tears in her eyes, and her voice shaking, Cara Baldree testified in favor of the bill while holding a picture of a young girl in her arms.
“I’m speaking up for her. I’m speaking up for her because she’s the bravest little girl... If I could go back in time, I would hug her and tell her she is beautiful.”
As it turns out, the photo of the young girl was Baldree in the 1980s. She held her own picture, surrounded by other survivors of ritualistic abuse.
