I didn't even know about this...

Donziger represented over 30,000 farmers and Indigenous people from Ecuador in a case against Chevron related to environmental damage and health effects caused by oil drilling. The Ecuadorian courts awarded the plaintiffs $9.5 billion in damages, which led Chevron to withdraw its assets from Ecuador and launch legal action against Donziger in the US. US courts have sided with Chevron and Donziger has been under house arrest since August 2019 awaiting trial on charges of criminal contempt of court.

I can't say it surprises me that it is happening, but I am surprised by how brazen it is. The fuck is this??
