Original Note:
The author of the note has no understanding of the law whatsoever. In the US, truth is an absolute defense against charges of defamation and a liability finding in civil court is sufficient proof of truth. Truth doesn’t have to be proven beyond a reasonable doubt https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/defamation#:~:text=To%20prove%20prima%20facie%20defamation,entity%20who%20is%20the%20subject https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_defamation_law
