Talk:Joseph Wapner

message: The page previously said (he)"dated Lana Turner for a short time while in high school."  I changed this to "dated Lana Turner once while in high school."  I cannot provide my source, but I was just watching a YouTube video with the Judge, which led me here, but I've already closed the window.  They mentioned he dated Lana Turner and he said "once, just once" (to which they replied, "well, one date is a relationship in Hollywood!" hah).  The video shouldn't be too hard to find - he's on a morning news talk show, and of all damned things they're talking about nipple rings, if someone feels inclined to/needs to find the vid.

message: One paragraph says he never watched his successors and had no opinion of their shows. The next paragraph says he didn’t like Sheindlin’s behavior and links to an article in which he is highly critical of her. Nicmart (talk) 02:38, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

message: Judge Wapner ordered Lamarr to pay $15,000 dollars (about $150K in 2023) to a man she had (falsely) accused of rape many years ago. I can only find a single newspaper clipping about this (AN INTERNATIONAL TIMELINE OF FALSE RAPE ALLEGATIONS 1674-2015: HEDY LAMARR (falserapetimeline.org) ) which isn't linking here for ... I dunno? Reason? But it is easily found on a large search bot. 
This isn't on Lamarr's Wikipedia entry as yet (it should be as it's a big story and vitally important for people to know who Lamarr really was) but I think it also deserves mention here. 92.40.5.83 (talk) 17:57, 14 October 2023 (UTC)
