Maximilia Cordero: Maybe Not a Man - and Ready To Prove It
The story of Cordero v. Epstein — the lawsuit filed by an aspiring model against prominent Wall Street financier Jeffrey Epstein, alleging that he took advantage of her when she was underage — gets weirder by the day.
The New York Post reported that the model, Maximilia Cordero, was actually born a man — one Maximillian Cordero, b. 1983. Cordero then sued the Post, filing as an exhibit with the court a birth certificate showing she was born a female. A number of you questioned the document’s authenticity, pointing out various irregularities. And such skepticism made sense: Cordero, despite filing the birth certificate with the court, is not including the Post’s claim that she’s a transsexual in her lawsuit.
But even if it may not be the gravamen of her complaint, Cordero still wants you to know she’s not a tranny. From a statement that William Unroch, her lawyer / roommate / possible ex-boyfriend, sent to the Daily Intelligencer (via Gawker):
Ms. Cordero will be happy to attend a televised nude settlement conference or celebrity charity benefit nude tea party with Rupert Murdoch and Lucifer Carne [a reference to Post reporter Lucy Carne] if the NY Post feels this would clear up the matter. Both Ms Cordero and Mr. Murdoch can appear nude and state their positions on this matter of grave public concern.
Hmm… Time for an ATL field trip?
More insanity, after the jump.
Bill Unroch also explained why Cordero is not suing based on that whole “is she or ain’t she a she” thing:
As to why we are NOT suing on the gender issue. My review of the case law on Lexis Nexis finds no cases where a woman collected any damages for being called a man or vica versa [sic]. On the other hand there are hundreds of successful lawsuits where victms [sic] have sued for being called a “slut” and a “thief” which is what happened here.Furthermore having represented many minorities I find the Post’s hate campaign outrageous. Every gay, transgender, and straight person should be disgusted by it. We have spoke [sic] to many of these organizations and hope they will join us in attacking the Post for discrimination. When someones [sic] honesty and sexual promiscuity [?] are attacked with forged documents they have a very sound basis for a lawsuit. Their race, creed, color, and gender are not a defense.
After making the offer of the nude press conference, he continued:
I note in the fish world a male and female yellow tang look EXACTLY the same while a male and a female seahorse look very different. Clownfish can change sexes at will. Are we yellow tangs or seahorses or clownfish? Evolution is quite complex. Justice is a lot simpler.William Unroch, Attorney.
And so is telling apart a man and a woman (we think). Can’t wait for that naked press conference!

Rupert Murdoch nude? No thanks.
First to say First
Tang!
jflk
Thank God for this *one* whack-job client I *don't* represent.
"She's" angry because "her" sexual promiscuity was attacked? Definitely a dude!
Unroch's statement is lol hilarious.
"Are we yellow tangs or seahorses or clownfish? Evolution is quite complex. Justice is a lot simpler."
I've got to use this in a brief before I die.
Gallion OUT!
ga ga ga GOINK!!!!!
Finkel is Einhorn. FINKEL IS EINHORN!!! . . . Oh God, Finkel is Einhorn! Einhorn's a man!"
Yes, Mr. Unroch, justice is very simple. If "she" has a penis and nuts, then he is screwed.
Seriously, everyone needs to go to Gawker _right now_ and check out Unroch's email statement from Tuesday:

Truth is stranger than fiction. I first though opf Unroch as eccentric and amusing. Now, I think batshit crazy fits better.
NY to chromosome testing!
well obviously she doesn't have a cock anymore. i demand a professionally performed pelvic exam.
NY to chromosome testing!
NY to chromosome testing!
NY to chromosome testing!
An offer to conduct a televised nude settlement conference? Please. Unroch knows no one would agree to such BS. He's obviously calling everyone's bluff.
Besides, Maximilia could be post-op by now. Some of the surgeons who do sexual reassignment surgery are so good that it's practically impossible to tell that the patient was born a male. (For obvious reasons, it's much harder to perform an undetectable female-to-male surgery.)
And yes, Unroch is indeed batshit crazy. I can't believe he is permitted to practice law.
This whole case is definitely taking a ride on the lollercoaster...
Seriously, folks go check out Unroch's email to Gawker at the link provided earlier. It's absolutely priceless. Here's a clip:
"Basically the whore [sic] article was a malicious defamatory lie to assassinate my client's charter [sic] cook up be [sic] Rubenstein and the post [sic] (which they conveniently left out the fact that they share the same publicist as Epstein!)."
I've never seen so many grammatical errors in one sentence, ever.
"Whore article"? ROTFLOLOMGWTFBBQ at the Freudian slip!
FRAT STUD makes me laugh out loud every time. I know several douchey story toppers and his comments remind me of that.
L2L should be atop the list for scticking to his guns and receiving national attention
12:23 -
That's called "bluffing" not "calling everyone's bluff."
And please never use the term "lollercoaster" again. We are all dumber for having had to read that.
12:33, you have just been sentenced to the Lollercaust. Go take a ride on the lollercopter. The lollercoaster is waiting for you. Etc.
Geez, who peed in your coffee today?
L2L didn't make the cut b/c this list was for serial commenters with the same, tired throw away lines for every comment thread. At least JT's tired, throw away lines are occasionally funny.
As for Gallion, perhaps he doesn't belong on the list, but it just seemed like too easy a target to pass up.
Yeah, L2L definitely isn't a serial commenter. And he brings a variety of dialogue to the table.
"Every gay, transgender, and straight person..."
What about the bisexuals, Unroch?
I fart in your general direction.
Gallion OUT!!!
I believe when a child is adopted, the birth certificate is reissued to show that the new parent(s) were the parents at birth. It's a legal fiction, but there's no way to tell that the birth certificate isn't accurate on its face, unless you have an earlier copy and/or find the court order of adoption. Is it possible that the birth certificate can be reissued in this manner as to gender if there's a court order?
Who cares about some model who used to be a man (or not). Manbearpig is still out there on the loose and we have to stop it! I am totally serial.
"As to why we are NOT suing on the gender issue. My review of the case law on Lexis Nexis finds no cases where a woman collected any damages for being called a man or vica versa [sic]."
This, to me, proves she was born a man. Who cares whether there's been a factually identical case if the elements of libel are met?
1:53, South Park was a lot funnier before certain Republican frat-boy types started to style themselves as "South Park Republicans". I'm just sayin'.
Man, woman, whatever. I'd still hit it twice, non-consecutively.
Actually, telling apart a man and a woman is not always simple. Some people are born with ambiguous genetalia, or other conditions which make it difficult or impossible to tell the difference. One such condition is androgen insensitivity syndrome. According to wikipedia, complete AIS results in an XY person (who would normally develope as a male) developing a "completely female body except no uterus, fallopian tubes or ovaries; testes in the abdomen; minimal androgenic (pubic or axillary) hair at puberty." And this happens in 1 out of 20,000 people! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Androgen_insensitivity_syndrome
Legal query: Who can a person with AIS marry in a state which bans same-sex marriage? In states that rely on chromosomes to determine sex for purposes of marriage (Texas, I think?), a person with AIS would be considered a man I would think. Yet, the AIS person would look, act, and consider themselves to be completely female. Lets take this opportunity to reflect on the inane marriage laws which make this type of analysis necessary.
Ambiguous genitalia? Maybe it's her 8 inch clit that's throwing everyone off?
Have you seen what William Unroch looks like? He looks worse then the pile of feces I just flushed down my toilet. I think Max Cordero was doing alot better with Jeffrey Epstein. At least Epstein is a billionaire, so his appearance is not important.
