Alexis Wilkins Filed Defamation Lawsuits Against 3 Individuals
Candace Owens criticized Kash Patel after Alexis Wilkins filed the lawsuits.
In August, Wilkins sued FBI agent-turned-podcaster Kyle M. Seraphin for defamation.
"Seraphin has maliciously lied about Alexis Wilkins, falsely asserting that she — an American-born country singer — is an agent of a foreign government, assigned to manipulate and compromise the Director of the FBI," the court filing read.
She took further legal action against Sam Parker and Elijah Schaffer, with the latter allegedly spreading false claims she was an Israeli spy.
All three lawsuits accused the men of "maliciously lying" about her, as well as "falsely asserting that she—an American-born country singer—is an agent of foreign government, assigned to manipulate and compromise the Director of the FBI."
Seraphin responded to Wilkins' lawsuit in a November 3 post on X, writing, "I'll take 'how to catch a lawsuit from the FBI Director's girlfriend' for $500, Alex."
