Suspect accused of Capital Gazette shooting filed a defamation lawsuit against the newspaper, court documents show. The suspect accused of killing at least five people at the Maryland newspaper had an ongoing dispute with the publication, court papers obtained Thursday show. A judge threw out a defamation lawsuit against Capital Gazette that was filed by Jarrod Ramos, 38, in 2012, saying that Ramos failed “to come close to alleging a case of defamation.” A Maryland appeals court further concluded that everything printed in a July 31, 2011 newspaper story about Ramos appeared to be true.
