His legal issues continue. There's a court hearing in a week on one of them.
The lawyer involved is also involved other cases. The judge said the allegations against Ballard were not specific. So this could be the case in the other lawsuits.
The timing on this, however, was partially driven by Ballard/OUR.
They asked the judge if they could be granted like an extra month to file papers earlier this year.
The drops from Q make it clear (from a probability standpoint) that they had access to Intel, quite probably military Intel & potentially access to NSA for a time.
I find it hard to believe that the Q team wouldn't be aware of Ballard potentially being a black mark on preventing human trafficking. Though it certainly is possible that it was missed, I have a hard time believing it. Utah is filled with young ladies who accuse men of sexual crimes, sometime just because the girl had dirty thoughts about the guy.
Until all the facts come out & a jury convicts him, I have a hard time believing any of the accusations. Unfortunately our system is set up for Lawfare to work as a way to drain bank accounts instead of punishing those who bring false claims to court & judges in Utah (from my limited experience) do not want to be the guy to throw a woman in prison for perjury (at least according to my attorneys I have worked with in the past). It may also be procecutors who do not want to put women in prison for lying to the court & draining another's bank account with Lawfare. Though I certainly could be reading too much into this.
A few points.

Thank you for this added context & information.
