The Arizona Court of Appeals ruled the Arizona Daily Star did not defame a Tucson lawyer in its reporting on a 2021 confrontation between a then-Pima County Justice of the Peace and a stalker.

Arizona Daily Star The Arizona Daily Star and two of its journalists did not defame a Tucson attorney, the state Court of Appeals has ruled.

At Qin’s trial for stalking, a jury heard evidence that Watters’ family was distressed after several incidents in which garbage linked to Qin was left on their lawn. About the same time, the judge’s truck tires were slashed twice. The suit alleged that a March 2021 news article by Star reporter Carol Ann Alaimo incorrectly implied that the Caitlin Watters quit her job as a Pima County prosecutor in connection with the incident. The lawsuit also alleged that a subsequent opinion column by Star columnist Tim Steller included false and misleading statements.
