An extramarital affair between Slater and Debbie Brown was revealed in an Auckland District Court judgment detailing the bitter fallout between Brown and her former friend Jacqueline Sperling.
Both women had been linked to shock-jock Michael Laws: Sperling a former girlfriend and Brown a woman he had been seen out with.
Brown and her friend, lawyer Madeleine Flannagan, had applied for restraining orders against Sperling under the Harassment Act. They complained Sperling had made numerous hurtful and distressing internet posts about them.
But in a lengthy written decision on Friday, Judge David Harvey, dismissed their application. He said Brown had contributed to her own distress and had admitted to having made a number of unfortunate choices.
“One of them was to have an affair with a married man. That man was Cameron Slater.”
The short affair was around the end of 2010 and ended when Slater spent a Christmas holiday with his wife and family. Brown had then told Slater’s wife of the affair.
Judgie boy Harvey had this to say about the sluts attempt to get another slut convicted of harassment;
“Given the nature of the blogging community, this information was not going to remain a secret. Ms Brown could hardly expect that she would not be ‘talked about’ having had an affair with one of New Zealand’s highest profile bloggers,”
Judge Harvey said Brown may have been distressed but that was not directly because of Sperling’s posts. Rather, it was from her own engagement with the internet, and blogosphere and by accessing Sperling’s blog.
Flannagan, too, engaged with Sperling online and was in her “sights”.
In his decision, Judge Harvey urged Sperling to;
“leave Ms Brown and Ms Flannagan alone”…. “It would not be advantageous to anyone to trumpet the outcome of this case across the blogosphere.”
Well Judge Harvey you are wrong on that point. Internet bloggers are the new raw media, and the establishment that has previously used the alleged credibility of APN, Fairfax, radio and TV to promote its evil agendas, is now open to attack by a far more influential force. LF sees itself as being at the forefront of that truth force. As if Judge Harvey would have addressed the NBR in that manner? We somehow doubt it very much – it would have been at his own peril to have done so.
Sperling understandably couldn’t resist, having won, she immediately crowed to a waiting media;
“the outcome was “awesome”…… “I had thought I was going to lose because I did not get a lawyer and fight it. I am so grateful that I got a judge that is an expert in that area and took the time to make a quality decision,” she said.
Mad “Bitch” Flannagan having been well and truly caned still managed a little spin saying she was “reasonably happy” with the judgment. Yeah right Mad “bitch” Flannagan – you had your camels-toe well and truly kicked in. Mad “bitch” Flannagan tried further to put her bullshit spin on the embarrassing loss;
“While we did not get a restraining order, Judge Harvey found Ms Sperling had committed harassment against us. He accepted our version of events, almost without exception, and dismissed Ms Sperling’s public claims about the case as false. I feel vindicated if nothing else.”
Flannagan then claimed that;
“the decision set a precedent on cyber-bullying and I am sure more cases would follow”
What a complete numb-nuts this low rent legal pimp was. She had just lost a precedent setting case and somehow finds it appropriate to crow unheralded victory – or at least the halfwitted NZ Herald journo Kathryn Powley did on her behalf. But then again Kathryn Powley has again recently proven that she has all the hallmarks of a biased complete fucking idiot when looking at her story on the National party creep John Palino.
The essence of the case was – are the statements made on the blog true – or likely true, and was Flannagan partially responsible for her predicament. End of story. But wait no, its not, it never is when LF is involved.
In May of 2010 Juana Atkins admitted to the media that her life with “Cam the man” was so bad that even his health insurer had canned payments for the treatment of his deep seated depression. Atkins said “mental health” problems are driving her husbands internet behaviour – which has included a campaign to break suppression orders and insult people online. Big fucking deal. Anyone who’a stupid enough to remain in New Zealand is bound to develop serious mental health issues.Juana Atkins also said her cunt husband Cameron Slater has “no thought of the consequences for himself or others or indeed his family” when he makes his online attacks.
Atkins outburst was allegedly sparked by the couple’s forced sale of their East Auckland family home. The house was sold after Slater’s insurance payments for depression were canned by insurer Fidelity Life. Slater most likely claimed depression when he was charged by the police, which would, if the case, evidence what a gutless coward he is. The insurer got on to him and canned the fraud. Now LF asks where was Slaters supposedly wealthy father when this was all going on. At the time Slater wrote on his blog;
“The house is gone, there is nothing left,”
It was followed by a post from Atkins stating:
“You have a wife who loves you, kids who adore you and a number of truly great friends. We will always have a home because a house does not make a home. A family does.”
That elicited little sympathy from one reader, who said Slater had shown little thought for the family of deceased King’s College student James Webster that month.
The controversial blog post had followed police charges after Slater printed and hinted at a string of names of people before the courts who had name suppression.
In response, Atkins wrote:
“I do not have the power to stop him. It is because he is clinically depressed that he says and does out-there things. He was nothing like this before he became ill.
“He shoots from the hip with no thought of the consequences for himself for others or indeed his family. The very fact that he says hurtful things that show a total lack of empathy is the evidence that he is seriously ill.
“He watches me cry my eyes out again and again and it moves him not one iota. You want me to be upset that he has hurt others? I am too busy dealing with his lack of empathy towards me.”
At the time Slater said he had seen the post by Atkins and did not want to comment further. He claimed the family were moving into “cheaper” rental accommodation.
Now come on Slater, you lying fat bastard – running out the mental health card using your wifes allegations that you are a mental cunt to try and mitigate your offending by breaching suppression orders for your own benefit, and not for the benefit of your readership. Not all convicted sex offenders are guilty. Look at the Peter Ellis case just for starters.
Now if Slaters wife had said that Slater was an ugly thick cunt who could not string a truthful story together then that would be completely different and argaubly more honest defence.
And as for Slaters wife putting up those ludicrous posts on her husbands blog, when she was probably sitting next to him at the time. Why not tell him over the phone you lying bitch. The posts seem to indicate that they are separated when in the next statement to the media Slater is stating that he and his numbnuts wife are moving into cheaper rental accommodation.
The District Court Judgment seems to indicate that Slater was dicking and licking slapper Debbie Brown at the time that Slaters wife, Juana Atkins, was bending over backwards, but Slater was busy bending over Debbie Brown. What is it with the surname “Brown” and infidelity? It must be in the genes.
Now in the strangest of coincidences LF have managed to ascertain that Auckland’s mayor Len Brown is a good mate of a man called Keith Smith who just happens to be very friendly with the mother of all harlots – the family smasher, Elizabeth “cumsack” Currie. Fuck us sideways, there might just be something to this 6 degrees of separation malarkey.
In a global context New Zealand rates as “small town”, and like all small towns its also a politically incestuous little shit-hole – complete with inbreeding!

Hi LF, who the hell is this retard ‘Ratio D’. The comment by this commentator that the low rent decision is routinely taught is an absolute nonsense, where? Its a go nowhere NZ District Court decision by a DCJ there’s no supporting law. What’s the NZLR, or DCLR citation? Love your comment that they are an idiot and fuck off! My guess that the contribution was from a teenager or else a complete fucktard. Have to agree with the other contributor ‘Thingymajizz’ this post is not your most politically correct effort, but hey given the people you are dealing with it’s arguably restrained.
I was under the impression that in order to be “precedent setting” the decision had to be a High Court decision?
The most recent case that was heard in June did result in a victory for Flannagan. I was ordered to remove blog posts, and am prohibited from speaking about this case or Flannagan in any medium where i have moderation abilities – indefinitely.
That was a huge win for Flannagan – at least in her mind.
In saying that – it probably would have been been a more important win had i known the case was even being heard. I was not served prior to the hearing, had no idea it was even happening, and didn’t really give a toss about the outcome when the judgement arrived in my mailbox. I had not thought about Flannagan in a good 10 months and removing old posts took me 5 minutes. Who would be reading them anyway? No one – except Flannagan.
I was more shocked that Judge David Harvey did not require some notification to me of the case being heard so that i might be able to argue my position, or point out that every thing i had blogged or written had been in response to Flannagan and her friends and their blogs about me and / or comments they were making on my blog – before making a judgement – than i was with the actual decision.
Flannagan bascally looked at every reason why her first attempt failed and then instead of appealing (which would have been the normal route) she refiled a whole new case which twisted and altered what she had said in affidavits in her first case to cancel out those reasons Judge Harvey had given for the failure.
ie: instead of admitting she was reading my blog non stop and obsessing over everything i wrote and that was what was causing her distress – she had to change this to “a friend brought it to my attention and sent me a link” … etc etc.
Very clever – but not very honest.
The fact that the June 2013 hearing was not defended would take most of the gloss off it and i seriously doubt it is being taught in law schools.
Ratio – D is most likely this weirdo – http://halfdone.wordpress.com/ He leaves comments on my blog with that silly hyuk hyuk thing he says.
Strange one he is – prone to nutty obsessions.
Anyway – my freedom of expression has been severely encroached upon but at the end of the day i don’t really care. I well and truly hope that everyone involved in this lame case where there were no winners (this blog post proves that) are in happier places and not wasting their time on rubbish.
Jeez i hate that photo of me.
I don’t know whether to laugh or cry after reading this.
The numb nuts is you.
In June 2013, 4 months you wrote the incredibly outdated fiction above about a 2012 case, hyuk hyuk, the judgment in the “low rent legal pimp’s” second case against Sperling was handed down.
Flannagan set her second precedent setting case in cyber bullying law and won an indefinite restraining order against Sperling, and a takedown order and costs.
The decision in Flannagan v Sperling was reported around the world and is now routinely taught in law schools. Experts in the field have said that Flannagan did some masterful lawyering to get the decision and the remedy she did, using a law written before the internet was widely used.
The decision is here:

I look forward to reading your cutting imaginations about this case sometime towards the end of 2014, a good year after the decision came out – as writing out of date, uninformed, chaotic mashed up inflammatory vitriol seems your forte.
Hi “Ratio D”
We suspect that you’re a Slater-hater given the timing of your comment/spam (readers please note) either way we are not.
With respect to the body/argument within your comment and its “linked URL’s” we would suggest that you first blow it out your arse and then set fire to the crap you’ve recently posted on that wordpress blog of yours. Then we would further suggest that you read this, a far more current and pressing issue that should concern not only the object of your derision but that of all bloggers; yourself included: http://laudafinem.com/2013/12/01/whaleoil-blog-judge-grants-discharged-bankrupt-license-for-fishing-expedition/
Who is Slater?
Ah, so you’re an idiot? Why not fuck off while your ahead dropkick!!!!
When is part 3 of the Currie Conspiracy coming our way guys. You absolutely rock. I have picked up 62 friends on face book from all over the world posting the first two stories. Elizabeth “cumsack” Currie is probably the most horrible person in the whole wide world.
This post is nasty, vindictive, terrible and full of foul and obnoxious language.
I fucking love it…keep it coming
