  "account": "Former NFL wide receiver Terrell Owens was recently seen receiving legal papers during an autograph event at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. The incident was captured on video and went viral after the lawsuit was shared by attorney Edward Paltzik. The defamation lawsuit against Owens is tied to a social media post he made in September, which demanded the arrest of three friends of a missing Black college student. Paltzik stated that Owens had been evading service of the lawsuit, which was filed in federal court on October 5. Owens' lawsuit against three friends claims the post was \"false and malicious\" and describes the narrative about the student's death as \"devastating and far-reaching defamatory.\"",
  "summary": "In a now-viral clip, Owens was served legal papers during a meet-and-greet event on Sunday.",
