From today's decision by Judge Kyle Dudek (M.D. Fla.) in Noshirvan v. Couture (for a 2023 decision stemming from the same incident, see Plaintiff Sues Defendant, Alleging Defendant's "Niche Is Cancel Culture"):
This case begins with a viral video. Plaintiff Danesh Noshirvan is a citizen journalist who built a social media following by exposing bad behavior in public spaces. In January 2022, he posted a video of Defendant Jennifer Couture confronting a young woman in a Dunkin Donuts parking lot. The video caught fire, resulting in criminal charges for Couture and public backlash. Couture and her now-husband, Defendant Dr. Ralph Garramone, allegedly decided to get even.
According to Noshirvan, Couture and Garramone—acting individually and through Garramone's various business entities—hired a convicted computer hacker named Joseph Camp to retaliate. Camp, in turn, connected the couple with Defendant Patrick Trainor, a New Jersey lawyer who operates the Anti-Doxing League. What followed, Noshirvan alleges, was a retaliatory conspiracy by these defendants to systematically destroy his life and livelihood.
Trainor responded to Noshirvan's lawsuit with counterclaims for defamation and civil conspiracy. According to Trainor, Noshirvan used his social media account to falsely brand Trainor as a "Nazi," a "White supremacist," and a "pedophile."
Trainor also alleges that Noshirvan enlisted two non-parties—James McGibney (who runs the account @bullyville) and an anonymous user known as @credibleintel—to amplify the smear campaign and republish the offending statements. Noshirvan then allegedly weaponized these posts to file bogus complaints against Trainor with state and federal law enforcement, as well as the New Jersey Office of Attorney Ethics. …
The conflict with Trainor ignited in January 2024, when McGibney emailed Trainor to accuse him of misrepresenting facts to a court. That private dispute quickly spilled onto the internet. Between February 2024 and 2025, Noshirvan, McGibney, and @credibleintel unleashed a barrage of social media posts targeting Trainor. The publications accused him of harassment, professional misconduct, conspiring with a fugitive, and being a Neo-Nazi and pedophile. According to Trainor, the offending posts remain publicly visible today….
