Post: Past Comments Made By Dr. Lipsey
Posted by Greg Weatherman on 2/20/04
For those who want accuracy,
On previous occasions, Caoimhin Connell has made statement
about Dr. Richard Lipsey that are misrepresentations of
quotes or circumstances. Why would someone spend so much
time slurring Dr. Lipsey?
Dr. Lipsey stated, "It is impossible to remediate
Stachybotrys".
The unspoken but understood rationale was the mycotoxins in
the spores had to be physically removed. This is not
possible in soft porous items like upholstered furniture.
He stated this many times before. If you look at his
background, you will see he has been conducting research
for more than 30 years. Some people just cite literature
and others experiment to verify.
He was quoted as saying, "Insurance companies are engaged
in a conspiracy to ruin him with the help of Caoimhin
Connell" (says Caoimhin).
TRUTH: Caoimhin started posting Dr. Lipsey is fraudulently
claiming to be a toxicologist in court. Caoimhin said he
had recently helped an attorney pursue this in acourt case
where Dr. Lipsey was an expert witness. Dr. Lipsey was
under a "nondiscolosure" about the case (so was the other
side). Dr. Lipsey them made the satement about one
particualr insurance company and Dennis Nino only.
Caoimhin has taken advantage of a "nondiscolosure" to give
half the story. It is hard to verify if cases are not
given for verification.
Phares Heindl has repeated stated Dr. Lipsey is certified
for expert witness work as a toxicologist. He has also
stated Caoimhin Connell is not certified to his knowledge
and requested Caoimhin give him any case number to prove
him wrong.
Dr. Lipsey also does work for insurance companies. I'm
sure they call him if there is a frivolous case being
aggressively advanced by an overzealous lawyer. The
lawyers I have met want an expert witness who is not seen
as representing only one side. In fact, a well known West
Coast attorney stated there are law firms in California
that they pay more attention since they get nothing but the
good cases.
I guess there are "ambulance chasers" and there are lawyers
who don't need to engage in "artistic license". Why do
these lawyers and defense lawyers use Dr. Lipsey or respect
Dr. Lipsey? Caoimhin, do you know something the legal
community doesn't?
The only reasons Dr. Lipsey has not pursued litigation in
this matter is for two reasons:
1) Caoimhin Connell is not worth enough money to justify
the legal expense. Dr. Lipsey is very lose more money by
virtue of the time away from business to chase no real
monetary reward.
2) Dr. Lipsey has not seen "economic losses" due to the
ridiculous postings. In fact his business gets better.
Caoimhin has inadvertently helped Dr. Lipsey (there is
humorous justice in the universe).
I hope people will continue to ask him where he is getting
expert witness work as a toxicologist. Prove me wrong.
give us any case that can be verified.
