A federal jury in Denver on Monday found MyPillow founder Mike Lindell liable for defaming Eric Coomer, a former security director at Dominion Voting Systems, over statements Lindell made after the 2020 U.S. presidential election. Jurors concluded the claims were false and damaged Coomer’s reputation, awarding the plaintiff $2.3 million in damages. Coomer’s suit, filed in 2021, said Lindell repeatedly portrayed him as a “traitor” who helped steal the election. The jury agreed that the allegations lacked evidence and constituted defamation under Colorado law. The ruling marks another legal setback for prominent election conspiracy theorists. Lindell, a vocal supporter of former President Donald Trump, said after the verdict that he intends to press on with his allegations and plans to appeal.
