I saw this about a week ago when the story first broke that they were
being sued. How did it get thru the courts already?

The judge is obviously an idiot. Ms. Young just wanted to punish
somebody (anybody) for crossing her path, and the judge was complicit.
She turned down their offer to pay her medical bills and sued because
their apology didn't seem sincere enough?

But it is pretty obvious that Ms. Young will die alone; a bitter and
lonely woman, so maybe there is a little justice in the world.

Next time, the girls will use a little better judgement -- and leave a
flaming bag of dog crap.

Best regards,
