Donald Trump on His $5M Win in Miss Pennsylvania Defamation Suit

December 19, 2012 As Seen On Extra

Miss Pennsylvania, Sheena Monnin, will be paying a hefty price for her accusations last summer that claimed the Miss USA pageant was rigged.

The former beauty queen resigned from the contest when she didn’t make the top 15 and then took to Facebook to bash the pageant, saying it was fixed.



Donald Trump’s Miss Universe Organization filed a defamation suit and won, requiring Monnin to pay $5 million in damages.

Following the announcement on Tuesday, Trump told “Extra’s” Jerry Penacoli, “She said terrible things and they were untrue. We have Ernst and Young and everything is tabulated very accurately. What she said was just ridiculous. So we brought a suit and we won $5 million.”

He added, “She was a very disgruntled person, I don’t know how she could have said it, but she said it and now she has to pay a very big price.”

Are you tired of going office daily? Work at home with Google! I get paid over $87 per hour working from home with 2 kids at home. I never thought I'd be able to do it but my best friend earns over 10k a month doing this and she convinced me to try. The potential with this is endless. Here is what I've been doing, http://www.MoneyGoogle.fab17.com
