Tom Girardi’s Crimes

In the second episode of “Predator in Plain Sight: Exposing Tom Girardi,” Chris Hansen dives deeper into the reprehensible actions of the disbarred attorney, Tom Girardi. Cohosted by author, litigation consultant, and victims advocate, Kimberly Archie, who will also testify in the upcoming trial, they explore the grim realities faced by Girardi’s victims. Kimberly’s personal ties with the victims and her extensive background in legal advocacy bring a unique depth to the discussion.

This episode sheds light on the legal and personal battles of individuals like Danny Barnes, who suffered due to Lockheed Corporation’s negligence and was later deceived by Girardi and his associates. Katy Rugomez recounts the harrowing ordeal following the Pacific Gas and Electricity pipeline explosion that severely injured her son, pointing out the systemic failures that left victims like her re-victimized. Josie Hernandez shares her health-related legal struggle, illustrating how Girardi preyed on the vulnerable, further solidifying the magnitude of his misconduct. Through comprehensive narratives and expert insights, the episode underscores the egregious failures in the legal system that allowed Girardi’s actions to persist unchecked for decades.
