The lawsuit filed Monday in Denver says Grace, who hosts a show on Turner Broadcasting's HLN network, incorrectly told millions of viewers that Ben Seibert invaded a woman's home and snapped a photo of himself on her phone, which she described as a 'textbook serial killer's calling card.'
Seibert said Grace humiliated him with her commentary, which prompted people across the country to label him a weirdo, sicko, rapist and pervert on various social network sites.
--
The lawsuit points to other cases in which it says Grace made 'outrageous and defamatory' comments on television and notes that several courts admonished her for unethical conduct during the nine years she was a prosecutor.
'Based on the history we've researched regarding Ms. Grace, we're pretty confident there are other victims,' Pineau said, urging others to come forward to help Seibert's case.

Hope he wins. Nancy Grace has been doing this for years on her show.

They could have had a case against her, too. What a nasty person.
