Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida
Someone at work was talking about someone saying she heard he fit the profile of a pedophile and was a dumbass. I felt bad and went to the guy and told him that I had nothing against him and told him what was said. He wants me to type what was said....will I get in trouble for this? He wants it for documentation. This person has been talking about many staff.

I would recommend that you not get involved.
Too many people don't get involved in things they should get involved in. Frequently, people get hurt when inappropriate conduct is ignored.
If a coworker is making frequent and inappropriate comments about others at your work place, I would speak with your supervisor or the human resources people about this. I doubt that I would have gone to the person that was insulted, but would have spoken with the HR people so that they could address this clearly inappropriate conduct.
stay out of it. your repeating what was said even if you qualify it may get you in trouble.
