Newlywed Says Clear Channel-Philly Defamed Her

A newlywed says she does not know football star Chad Ochocinco, but that didn't stop Clear Channel radio host "Jonesy" from defaming her by posting a stolen photo of her on the Power99 WUSL station's website with the false assertion that she is pregnant with Ochocinco's child.

According to a story by Reuben Kramer at courthousenews.com, Hana Augins, whose husband is serving in Afghanistan, says the defendants caused her "entire life to be turned upside down" in February when Jonesy posted her picture, with the spurious assertion that she had had a sexual relationship with Ochocinco, who formerly was known as Chad Johnson. Ochocinco is not a party to the complaint.

Augins' ordeal began when a woman known as "Paige" called the "Jonesy in the Morning" show and "said during the on-air call to Jonesy that she is three months pregnant by Ochocinco, who is widely known to be engaged to be married to a different woman," according to the federal complaint.

Paige then sent a purported picture of herself to Jonesy (Tarsha Jones), according to the complaint.

"However, the photograph Paige sent to Jonesy was, in fact, a photograph of plaintiff," the complaint states.

"Without verifying the authenticity of the photograph ... Jonesy caused the misidentified photograph of plaintiff to be posted on the Power99 website under the heading: 'Chad Ochocinco's Baby Mama Revealed!!!!!'," according to the complaint.

That's when the story went viral, Augins says.
