    Might have been fake, though.

    This was real. I believe he was injured because he tripped over one of residents who was sleeping on the floor.

    I heard that too! Apparently the defendant was an old woman. What kind of judge/jury would have ruled that?

    People should really stop visiting his blog everytime he posts these articles because he's ripping other author's articles and claiming them as his own.

    Bull shit Mr. Chaney.

    This website is nearly as bad as Eric Bauman's, as he rips things from other websites, slaps his signature on to the bottom of them claiming he owns them, and uses them to promote his site




    Take almost any of the articles on the website, copy the title or the first sentence, Google it, and you'll find the exact article posted elsewhere much earlier.

    I don't have a problem with the redistribution of news articles, but take your name off it because you didn't ****ing write it and have no ownership over it. Give credit where credit is due. A couple of the articles have sources, but I noticed when he posted the OnLive article earlier this week that he didn't always cite sources/ripped articles.

    lol we used to look at some crazy stuff like this in Business Law.

    I always found the people who try to sue McDonalds for becoming fat from eating their food to be utterly ridiculous.

    It is illegal for a man to beat his wife with a strap wider than 2 inches without her consent.

    That is a law in LA. Wow.
