The Californer/10304612

LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Alander Lee Pulliam, a Harvard Law graduate and successful businessman, has filed a lawsuit against the USC Transportation Department. The lawsuit alleges a coordinated smear campaign led by individuals including Josh Carelli, Ruben, Brain Chavez, and Angela, who fabricated damaging narratives about Pulliam. These unfounded claims have caused severe repercussions on his personal and professional life.

The genesis of the allegations dates back to a complaint by an anonymous individual on February 5, 2025, accusing Pulliam of "loitering" at USC Transportation checkpoints and engaging in inappropriate behavior towards staff. Pulliam firmly denies these claims, arguing they are an affront to his integrity and evidence of a broader pattern of defamation.

Pulliam's lawsuit outlines the seriousness of defamatory claims, highlighting the emotional distress and professional repercussions inflicted upon him. The claims also jeopardized his philanthropic endeavors, including initiatives to empower marginalized communities. In collaboration with Allied Universal Security Services, Pulliam has consistently advocated for a positive environment and has worked to support education, youth initiatives, and health awareness campaigns.
