Convicted sexual predator sues mustard company for misleading 'custumers' with packet packaging

 



A convicted sexual predator is representing himself behind bars in a civil lawsuit lodged against a condiment company for false and deceptive advertising and breach of duty of care regarding the labeling of one of their mustard products.


David Lettieri, currently incarcerated at Northeast Ohio Correctional Center, claims that although ingredients are shown on a mustard packet produced by Four-In-One, there is insufficient nutritional information for "custumers" to determine the calories and carbohydrates in the product. He is seeking $450,000 in damages.


Lettieri is awaiting sentencing for enticement of a minor, a charge that carries a mandatory minimum penalty of 10 years.


Lettieri was arrested in October 2020 after traveling nearly 200 miles to meet a 13-year-old for sex in a park, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Western District of New York.
